Is this possible in IIS, and if so, could you please show us the way to implement it?

THE MISSING LINK
Red rover, red rover; send Mars pix right over

Houston, we have a hit. NASA's trip to space has been a huge hit in cyberspace -- 250 million hits so far, to be approximate. The landing of the space agency's Spirit rover on Mars is on a course to becoming NASA's biggest Web draw ever. The hits will probably keep on coming, now that color pictures of the red planet are being posted to NASA sites. NASA is using 1,300 servers around this planet to host Web pages containing details
of the mission.
