Thanks guys, that's plenty of help. I added an index.htm on the root of Default 
Web Site with the redirection in "head" section. Body simply says..."being 
redirected. If you are not redirected click on this link" the standard stuff. 
Works fine and gets me to midt-tier URL when I type just the server name.

I also have an alias (virtual path) that is mapped to a new folder I created 
which has an index.htm that redirects to another midtier url.

Now, http://midtierservername and http:/midtierservername/myalias both take me 
to the right mid-tier URL.

Thanks again.

Hi Rabi,

Here's how I accomplished something similar.  Our requirement was that the 
Remedy page needed to have what appear ed to be a static URL in the address bar:
- Open IIS Manager
  - Drill down to Internet Information Services \ Local Computer \ Default Web 
Site
  - Right click Default Web Site, and select Properties
  - Choose the Documents Tab
  - Make sure Enable default content page is checked.  Any files listed there 
will be shown if they exist in a directory, rather than showing the directory 
contents.  If multiple files matching those names exist, the one appearing 
first in that list will be the one shown.
  - Click the Home Directory tab
  - The path shown for Local path will be the root of your web server.   Open 
that path in Explorer.
- Create (or modify if one exists) a default content page.
  - Embed the remedy content within an IFrame, similar to the following:
