Post subject: IIS wildcards.. can they solve my problem?
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

Hello Evryone,
I've been looking all over the net, even trying to figure it out by using IIS variables but, no success.

There I go with what I am about to ask.

Scenary:
------------

1 Website (share content) accesible by 4 different DNSs

website1 --> 192.168.1.10
website2 --> 192.168.1.10
website3 --> 192.168.1.10
website4 --> 192.168.1.10

Base on the DNS name, content will differ from one site to another, except the login page.

Requirement:
------------------

Redirection from port 80 to port 443

Since redirection is available for only one URL (website1) all the other

tree websites will only show up the content from website1.

ISAPI filters are not allow.

Scripting is not allow (.asp, aspx, etc)

Solution has to be reached by using URL Redirect from website

properties. IIS variables (wildcards) are permited.

Example:
------------

http://website1 (192.168.1.10) --> redirect to http://*:443

http://website2 (192.168.1.10) --> redirect to http://*:443

http://website3 (192.168.1.10) --> redirect to http://*:443

http://website4 (192.168.1.10) --> redirect to http://*:443

Where (*) is the DNS name (or websitename).

I havent been able getting this to work since all of them share the same login content.

Application are sitting in a different server and I use ISAPI filter to carry all the request from the IIS front-end

I will really appreciate your help and I hop you understand what I am trying to achieve

Thank you very much.

Create four Host-header based websites sharing the same IP address. Each
website points to a different physical directory and has its own content.

Have the default website (the one without a host header) contain the login
page. The login page, it should send a 302 redirection to the browser to
any of the other four Host-header based websites (it should work since you
have DNS set up to resolve these host headers).

There is no Host-header based SSL, so you need distinct IP address.

From what you describe, it doesn't look like you can do this. You'll
either need to script it, or use separate IP addresses to achieve your
goal. You *could* simply provide a login page, then the response to a
correct login would provide a menu of sub sites to choose from.
