Basically it allows you to use an ISAPI filter to rewrite the url that the server uses to work with in IIS and is essentially a copy of the mod_rewrite utility available in Apache.

It uses Regular expressions...so if you are not an expert in those (as I am clearly not) then this little tidbit of code may help. It allows you to rewrite the url that comes in as subdomain.domain.com as domain.com/subdomain. The top portion is the header and sets up logging and such...the real meat is the last two lines.

Here it is

# Helicon ISAPI_Rewrite configuration file
# Version 3.1.0.48
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCompatibility2 On
RepeatLimit 200
RewriteBase
ReWriteLog C:\rewrite.log
RewriteLogLevel 9

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?!www)(\w+).christiedigital\.com
RewriteRule (.*) /%1/$1 [L]

Hope this helps
