Change of domain name question

We have changed the domain name for our company site but not the IP
address. Right now both the old and new domain names work. We would
like to put a redirect screen from the old name to the new. How do we
do that?

Right now www.oldname.com points automatically to
www.oldname.com/default.htm and www.newname.com points to
www.newname.com/default.htm. We want www.oldname.com to point to
www.oldname.com/redirect_to_newname.htm

We are using Windows NT 4 with IIS 4.

thanks

Do this with your DNS. Point both host records to the IP of the new
domain site. If you use host headers, you'll need to add the header
of the old site to the new site's headers.

Otherwise, you can use two sites and have one do a redirect in the IIS
configuration, Home Directory tab. Or you can create a default page
with a META-REFRESH tag pointing to the new domain.
