I kinda don't think this is possible, but I thought I would ask anyway, because you guys are all so smart.

Here is the scenario.

I have a website and two domain names(not really my site names): 

http://www.whatever.com
http://www.whatever2.com

I have http://www.whatever.com setup to point to my DNN install.  It works great.

I want to setup http://www.whatever2.com so that it actually points to https://www.whatever.com/something.

Is that possible to do with IIS and DNN?

Yes it is possible, you just need to add a rule to your SiteUrls.config file to map the domain to a specific tab.

Something like this:

http://www.DotNetNuke-Forums.com

    <RewriterRule>
      <LookFor>.*DotNetNuke-Forums\.com.*</LookFor>
      <SendTo>~/Default.aspx?tabid=560</SendTo>
    </RewriterRule>

Or this  http://www.DotNetNukeSkins.com :
    <RewriterRule>
      <LookFor>.*DotNetNukeSkins\.com.*</LookFor>
      <SendTo>~/Default.aspx?tabid=608</SendTo>
    </RewriterRule>

Both of those domains are actually tabs within my main portal at http://www.snapsis.com

Works great for SEO.

This is also a great way to share users across domains if you want a Single Sign-On approach.

Mr. Mitchell,

I could kiss you.  But I won't....

Thanks for the great info.  I will add this feature to my long love list with Dotnetnuke. 

Dotnetnuke is like my wife, I discover new things to love about it everyday.

Seriously, though, thank you for the response.  You have made my day.

Is this a good way to redirect http://localhost/DotNetNuke to http://localhost/? I am having dificulty applying the example to that.

I'm thinking that you are asking if a virtual folder can be accessed with just your machine name, which is not the same as this example.

You can't do that with the UrlRewriter (at least I can't think of a way).

Your best bet is to just not use a virtual folder if you don't want it.
