Is your friend running apache on Windows for his httpd server?  If so,
configuration should be pretty much like apache on Linux.  If not, get him
to switch (!!).

Hi,

I work exclusively with Linux web servers so I have no familiarity with how
windows servers work or how to configure stuff.

Is there an equivalent .htaccess for windows servers?

I use the .htaccess to do 301 redirects and to ensure the visitor is on the
www.domainname.tld vs domainname.tld  and other stuff.

I'm helping a friend with his website and it was build using ASP.  So it
runs on windows.  I was wondering how I would cause the visitor to always
be on www.domainname.tld vs domainname.tld.

As I write this, I realize that I will need to place a robots.txt file in
root.  Does this function the same as on a Linux server?

I love Linux so please no flames.

Thanks for your help.

Keith
