Rabi, If you open up IIS manager and select "Default Site" under Web Sites, you will notice a file: iisstart.htm in the pane at the right.
This is the page that will be pulled up when a user navigates to http://<servername> Right-click on iisstart.htm and select Properties from the context menu. Select the radio button: A redirection to a URL. Enter /arsys/home into the Redirect To: box, then click Apply and test.

I have IIS 6, Tomcat 5.5.17 w This is for web server/jsp engine gurus. I have IIS 6, Tomcat 5.5.17 with Midtier 7.0.1. I tried messing with IIS's configuration so that http://midtierserver name would map to something like http://midtierservername/arsys/home, so people wouldn't have to type a long URL. Couldn't get it done. IIS's virtual mapping wants me to pick a folder to map to not a URL like above. Also, it wants an alias to map to, so even if I could get it done, looks like the URL will look like, http://midtierservername/aliasname. I see iisstart.htm file in the default directory, which contains the error message that's displayed when I type http://midtierserver. Wondering if there's any trick I can play with this file to have it redirect to http://midtierservername/arsys/home or any other midtier URL. Any thoughts?
