IIS Redirect

[cfcProgrammer]

Hi,

I am new to this environment and need a little help.

Currently we have several websites within our company, an ad has gone out without the

http://www in

front of our website. The business would like to modify our IIS to allow for this. I thought this would be easy enough... I've tried it two ways...

ONE...
I went into the properties of the current website and added another host header name - website minus the www.

TWO...
I tried adding another website called for example... whatever.com. once this was created I went into the properties and Home Directory - clicked "A redirection to a URL" and entered the full web address... including the

http://www..

so I would have entered

http://www.whatever.com...

Neither one of these are working... Does anyone have any ideas on what I am missing within these steps???

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much
CFC

I ran into this issue awhile back. I thought I needed an * in the A Name record on the DNS. I was told the A Name record just needed to be blank.

Try adding an empty A Name record to your DNS entry to see if that helps.
