Hi Lyon -

I am Praveen from india..I was looking for an information to get complete redirect list from our server and could get only your script on net , But I am not aware how to execute your script given on net.

We are administrating servers that are 7 - 8 years old and there are many redirects set in this course of time and nothing is accounted, I need a script which could fetch the redirected URLa nd if possible other information related to the redirected virtual folder etc... Can you please assist me with a VBscript or the script that you have posted on net ..( A working ) and how to execute to get results.

Your reply will be of a great help for me.

Thank You !

D.M.Praveen
