301 redirects for windows to linux

yeraulone

Hello,

I have a website thats been changed from .net to php and Im going to create 301 redirects for the old pages to the new ones. For example, I want to redirect mysite.com/thispage.aspx to mysite.com/thatpage.php. Both have the same content.

I'm trying to figure out how to do the redirects properly. My new server is a linux server and will not run .net(.aspx) pages so I guess I have to create the redirects in php. Bu tI am unsure if that would work becouase of the extension name change.

Using the example above, Should I create a php page called thispage.php and use something like the script below to redirect to thatpage.php?

<?
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: http://www.nmysite.com/thatpage.php&quot; );
?>

I don't have access to the php.ini or .htaccess files on the new server. Apologies if this is not clear.

Thank you

Use Apache's mod_rewrite via a .htaccess

That's what it's there for
