Hi,
We contracted the building of a custom CMS website (Site1.edu) that currently resides on our IIS server. There are a number of configuration settings for this site, including URL rewrites and we'd like to create another site independent of the CMS site to build our own business web applications(.net and MVC).
That said, we'd like to keep the same domain name only route traffic for Site1.edu/apps/... to another IIS site on the same server. To do this, I've created a separate folder outside the root folder for the CMS and created a 2nd site with the binding apps.Site1.edu. Although the address apps.Site1.edu isn't publicly accessible, our hosts file is used to resolve it from the server.
Ultimately, for instance, we'd like to have users enter Site1.edu/apps/App1/DoSomething.aspx and be served up the contents of apps.Site1.edu/App1/DoSomething.aspx.
Hopefully this makes some sense as I've been spinning my wheels for a bit on getting this to work with rewrites.
Any Ideas/Guidance on completing this process would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
