Michael, I have done this type of thing many times but not using the web server machinery but instead using DNS. Most major DNS providers support 301 redirection in some form (it will usually have some type of proprietary branding). I have found that when I want to redirect an entire domain that it is usually more efficient to use DNS to perform the redirect rather than make my web server and/or ColdFusion have to handle the request . Of course, this will depend on your level of access to the domain’s DNS zone in the first place.
I realize that isn’t necessarily what you asked but I just thought I’d throw it out there as an idea for you.
