Trouble with root pointers and hosting multiple sites in one account

[richleah]

I have a page at the site rootcalled home.asp. That page has the following script in it:

<%
If InStr( UCase(Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")), UCase("sitea.com") ) > 0 Then
Response.Redirect("/sitea")
ElseIf InStr( UCase(Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")), UCase("siteb.com") ) > 0 Then
Response.Redirect("/siteb")
Else
Response.Redirect("/sitea")
End If
%>


The script is working great and redirecting to the appropriate subfolder. I have both subfolders marked as .net applications. The problem I am having is that when you go to either domain you also see the subfolder name in the url:

www.sitea.com (http://www.sitea.com) yeilds ==> www.sitea.com/sitea/default.aspx (http://www.sitea.com/sitea/default.aspx)

Basically, the application is looking back to the root folder as the application root instead of looking at the subfolder as the application root. Am I missing a setting in the web.config or something? I am not used to setting up application folders within application folders so this may be a knowledge gap for me. By the way, I do still have an application installed at the root folder level, but with the home.asp file redirecting, that application should not be working.

Any help would be appreciated!!

The only way not to see the path is to do Url Rewriting.
Go to Asp.net and search - there are several posts on this.

MacMan, I found this http://www.urlrewriting.net/149/en/home.html. I have not tried it, but it looked like it would work for us. I would love to hear if some is using it.
