<p>I have Sun webserver iws6 (iplanet 6) proxying my bea cluster.
My cluster is under /portal/yadda.
I want anyone who goes to </p>

<pre><code>http://the.domain.com/
</code></pre>

<p>to be quickly redirected to </p>

<pre><code>http://the.domain.com/portal/
</code></pre>

<p>I have and index.html that does a post and redirect, but the user sometimes sees it.
Does anyone have a better way?</p>

<p>Aaron</p>

<p>I have tried the 3 replies below. None of them worked for me. Back to the drawing board.
