I have a asp/vb .net website that I am shifting to a new server. On the old server, I like to refer the user to a redirection page, if there a general command that will take the user to one specific page if the user enters any point of the old website ? (i.e. somehwere in the webconfig ?)

Thanks, Dave

well, you could create a custom 404 page (you can specify this in the web.config) where you put the command Response.Redirect().

If a user requests a file that doesn't exist, it will then redirect you to the right place. This ofcourse has the requirement that you delete/rename/move the original files to a different location, so there are no previous-existing files available (and therefor always generating a 404).

    • Tesla instructor reportedly said staff leave with a 'negative taste in their mouth'

      Tesla instructor reportedly said staff leave with a 'negative taste in their mouth' by Hamid Ganji Tesla has been making the headlines over the past few months due to Elon Musk's controversy in the Department of Government Efficiency, aka DOGE. People have been marching to the streets, boycotting Tesla, and even setting their already-bought Tesla cars on fire. Tesla temporarily shut down its factory in Austin for the week of Memorial Day, and employees could either take paid time off or attend a series of training sessions. Business Insider now claims to have obtained a recording of the sessions that reveals some interesting details about the Tesla culture and how its employees feel about the company. The Tesla instructor reportedly asked employees to respond if they ever felt "I can't work under these conditions" and were uneasy about the company's constant change. "I know I have," the instructor said. "A lot of people leave this company, and they have kind of a negative taste in their mouth," the Tesla instructor added. "They think: 'Man, it was terrible. It was bad. I got burnt out. I feel like I didn't get anything done, nobody listened to me.'" Hundreds of Tesla employees allegedly attended the meetings, where they were asked to take more responsibility for improving the company's culture. "Leadership has kind of another level of responsibility for trying to guide and direct that culture," the instructor told Tesla staff. "But at the end of the day, it's us as the people on the ground that are the reflection of the culture." Tesla's factory in Austin produces Cybertruck and Model Y. The staff said shutting down the factory for the sake of Memorial Day has been unusual for the company. Elon Musk recently announced that he would leave his position at the White House and added that he'll remain Tesla CEO for another five years. In the meantime, the latest data shows Tesla sales in Europe have dropped 49 percent, and the company's profit in Q1 2025 declined by 71 percent.

      More like you took offense to the letdown and I find it hilarious. Most people aren’t reading tech blogs, and for those that do, they know what the difference is. So really it’s a non-story to YOU, because you don’t like what it says.🎻

      Building 100 hospitals around the world would have spent his fortune easily. But that would not keep him at the table with the elites in the world for the rest of his life. Or keep him from chanting about how good he is to the poor people around the globe to the media.

      Exactly. that's what I use when I do use Windows 10 on my Linux through QEMU/KVM VM (the 'activation' is tied to the UUID of the VM) and, like you said, that Jan 2032 version of Win10, even if decent program/game support ends earlier than Jan 2032, I suspect, for a conservative figure, that we got at least 2-3 years from now (so call it 2027-2028) before Win10 may start to become more of a legitimate issue. but for general usage I suspect we got a 'easy' 2-3+ years. because like you say, as long as browsers don't start to become a issue, all the more reason to continue using Win10 for many, probably most, people. even when it comes to browsers, you mentioned Firefox supports Win7 until end of August etc... but I think it's just ESR releases which, while I get it technically works, are when browser support is getting a bit long-in-the-tooth. but as long as the standard Firefox release is still supported, then one is still easily well within the 'good support range', which my comment basically plays inline with what Werct said, which I suspect comes back to my 2027-2028 estimate before Win10 'starts' to legitimately fade off into the sunset
