IIS redirection to a new servername

Does anyone know how I would setup IIS redirection on my existing Altiris server to redirect helpdesk requests to a new dedicated helpdesk server?



The server will still remain our NS and DS server but calls to http://server1/aexhd need to go to http://server2/aexhd





The problem is I've tried redirection with the url http://server2/aexhd$S$P as some of the IIS examples have shown but the results are messy.



Original - http://server1/AeXHD/worker/default.aspx?cmd=findA...

Current result - http://server2/aexhd/worker/default.aspx?cmd=findA...

Target results - http://server2/AeXHD/worker/default.aspx?cmd=findA...



I’m guessing the problem has something to so with how calls to http://server1/aexhd are processed to determine if you are worker or not and redirects to “winuser” or “worker”

Go to IIS

Go into IIS and find the aexhd website in HD.  Right click and select properties.  In the virtual directory tab select 'A redirection to a url.'

 

Now enter the path http://servername/aexhd

Hit apply.  You should be good to go.
