Question : Redirect websites on SBS 2003

Ok, here's the layout.
Small Business Server 2003 behind a single static IP address.
The customer wants https://mail.domainname.com to automatically redirect to OWA.
The customer wants anoter domain name, https://domaintwo.com to automatically redirect to the Remote Web Workplace.

I already have OWA setup and working with an SSL certificate and everything, I just need to know how to do the redirect.

The other question I have is, will SBS let me add a certificate for domaintwo.com for the Remote Web Workplace?  If so, how?  It looks like the SSL certificate settings propagate down from the parent automatically.

Thanks!

So it is - I did overlook that point (didn't notice that ssl was involved in the original question)

Although the javascript method will work fine from purely a redirection perspective, you will need to consider the SSL issue.  It will require either wildcard cert as Tray suggests (with the same domain part - i.e. https://mail.domainname.com and https://www.domainname.com, and https://domainname.com etc) or you need two IP addresses for the likes of https://mail.domainname.com and https://domain2.com

Alternatively, you can use just http to hit the redirection script, but have the applications both available under the same ssl web site, i.e:

http://mail.domainname.com -> redirects to -> https://secure.domainname.com/exchange

http://domain2.com -> redirects to -> https://secure.domainname.com/Remote

Alternatively, the users can simply ignore the ssl warnings ;-)

Cheers.
