I have been experiencing this problem from day one. I applied linkfreeze to a folder in the root of our site. I configured it this way:

#################################################
# LinkFreeze Configuration file
# Version 2, 2, 0, 68

LogRewrite=False
NotifyOrder=MEDIUM

/per_brands/  ~// .aspx @[^?]+\.aspx.*  [MoveExt,Redirect]

This worked in terms of changing the dynamic links on the site to html, however it also change all our relative and absolute .html links to .aspx. This caused the server to give a 404 response. I checked the headers and this is what the server sent back for ALL html pages:

HTTP/1.1 404 Object Not Found =>
Date => Wed, 02 May 2007 18:43:10 GMT
X-Powered-By => ASP.NET
Connection => Keep-Alive
Content-Length => 21085
Content-Type => text/html
Set-Cookie => ASPSESSIONIDQQABTDCB=PLAJGCGANIADHIBHLKIDLKNG; path=/
Cache-control => private 

The only thing I could think of was to make another entry for the root of the site so my configuration is now:

# LinkFreeze Configuration file
# Version 2, 2, 0, 68

LogRewrite=False
NotifyOrder=MEDIUM

/per_brands/  ~// .aspx  [MoveExt,Redirect]
/  ~~~ .html  [MoveExt]

This now randomly gives 404 responses on some of our other apps running in different directories. Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated. We cannot have at random every link on our site going to 404.

Please Help
