How do I do a redirect?

25 Jun 2013, 17:27

I wish to do a redirect for my company's FTP site. We moved our ftp site to a new server and when users go to what we have set up as a MX record to go the FTP site, http://dallas.urbandesigngroup.com they are sent to 12.45.148.234 and the firewall sends them 192.168.6.7.
This server is where the FTP content is located, but they cannot get authenticated.

If outside users go to FTP://12.45.148.234, then they get to the FTP site without issue and are prompted for a login and password, and all is well.

Our clients are used to going to http://dallas.urbandesigngroup.com and I would like to keep this URL, but I would like it to resolve to FTP://12.45.148.234.

How do I do this using ISAPI Rewrite 3 or any other software/procedure. Please note that I have never done a redirect before.

Hello,

Seems like a doable task, but would you specify the problem better...

- which one is the address for a new server and which one is old server?
- what was your old authentication and what are you using now?
- are we talking about viewing ftp through http? if not, than ISAPI_Rewrite can't help. we don't deal with ftp.

Regards
Andrew

When people went to http://dallas.urbandesigngroup.com they were going to a SnapServer that had an internal address of 192.168.6.4.
The authentication of the users was done internally in the SnapServer with it's own FTP software.
That server has been shut down due to old age.
We moved the FTP content to a different server at 192.168.6.7 and reconfigured our firewall to point FTP requests to the new server that has an internal address 192.168.6.7.
Our public IP Address is 12.45.148.234 and FTP requests used to point to the SnapServer address, but now that has been changed to the new server address. Therefore when someone goes to FTP://12.45.148.234 they get to the FTP site just fine, and as noted before get a prompt for login and password. The authentication of the users is now handled by the new server.

The problem is that I would like to somehow redirect http://dallas.urbandesigngroup.com to FTP://12.45.148.234.

What software should I use?

Hello,

The regular rule in .htaccess to redirect from one domain/IP to another would be:

Code: Select all
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule (.*) http://12.45.148.234/$1 [NC,R=301,L]


But as far as I understand you need a redirect(or even proxy) from http to ftp. Unfortunately, our product cant do that.

Regards
Andrew

The customary administer in .htaccess to divert starting with one space/IP then onto the next would be:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule (.*) http://12.45.148.234/$1 [NC,R=301,L]

In any case, the extent that I comprehend you require a redirect(or even intermediary) from http to ftp. Tragically, our item cannot do that.

When someone visits a certain page on your website, you want them to be redirected to another website instead? That's what I understood from your question. If that's the case, all you need to do is put this in the <head> . . . </head> section of your webpage: <Meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://www.facebook.com"> When someone visits the page that contains that code, it will redirect to the Facebook website instead of opening that particular page. If this is not what you want, you're not explaining it too well.

Hi!
I can share my experience. I used 301 redirect for some pages of my website.
If I can't use 301 redirect I use tag "rel=canonical"It depends from the situation.

If you really want to redirect your site you will have go to your Cpanel of your site where you find the option of redirect of your site you just have to change your ip address and then refresh your Cpanel.
