Need assistance with IIS 7 redirect for web email access
https://x.x.com/owa works perfectly. I would like to set up the page http://x.x.com to redirect users to the first location. Advice on how to accomplish this? I tried what I thought should work in IIS7 and didn't have much success, so need some help.Thanks,J

I would recommend you taking a look at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998359.aspxArticle does describe methods for Windows 2003 (IIS6) and Windows 2008 (IIS7) both.MMilind Naphade | MCTS:M | http://www.msexchangegeek.com

J, I do this using IIS. I'm assuming that you are using IIS rather than a reverse proxy like ISA Server. I'm also assuming that you are running a single server environment and that your /owa virtual directory is on the default web site. 1) Open IIS Manager on the Exchange server, then navigate to the Default Web Site under Web sites2) Right click on the Default Web Site and choose Properties3)Select the Home Directory property page4)Click the "A Redirection to a URL" radio button5)In the Redirect to: box, type your desired redirection, such as https://x.x.com/owa6)Click the "A directory below URL entered" checkbox7)Save your changes
Reset IIS and that should do it!

Hi,
For IIS7.0
1. Open IIS Manager.
2. Find Web Site-Default Web Site.
3. Find HTTP Redirect from Default Web Site Home (right area).
4. Click on HTTP Redirect.
5. Check redirect requests to this destination:
6. In the below blank, type / OWA
7. Click Apply in the right Actions pane.
8. Run iisreset /noforce(without quotation) from a command prompt.
Regards,Xiu
