Question

Redirect based on Client IP Address

Asked by: techxero

I need some sort of page (PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, HTML.... etc) that will redirect the user based on their IP Address.

It's application is this: I want to set Internet Explorer's homepage box to a single address for all clients, both inside and outside my network. I have two websites, one that is accessible from the internet ("Website"), and one that isn't ("Intranet"). I want clients that have a local IP address (10.0.0.x) to be redirected to the Intranet, and those without a local IP address to be redirected to the Website.

I don't want to implement a 403 error page that redirects to the website and put an IP filter on because I need to use the 403 page for a specific message where we are using an IP filter for other purposes elsewhere on the website.

The requirements is that the script/page can run on IIS6.0 on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition as a flat-file (no database). If I could stick to Microsoft technologies (ASP, HTML) [yes I know they're not "Microsoft", but they're more acceptable in a Microsoft environment than say ... PHP]. Here's my order of preference (if possible) for technologies: HTML, ASP.NET, ASP, PHP.

Thanks in advance!

Andrew.
