Hi

a client of mine is putting up a new site, and wants the old URL’s to be directed to the new URLs, via an htaccess file.
some of the redirects are intemal (within the site) and some are external (other websites)
Can this be done in an htaccess file
Does this option exist on a windows machine?

thanks

Yes, On Windows 2008 Server .htaccess file option works but after putting rules in .htaccess file, it need to import through url rewrite option is IIS Which we can done from server end.

For this request, We need your support ticket with domain name.

on windows (2008) it is in the web.config and in the format of URLRewrite 2.0 you can find alot of tutorials for it on iis.net as well as applications like wordpress and others.
