Hi,

I've set-up a website in IIS. I'd like to change the default IIS
alias from http://servername/websitename to something a bit more user
friendly.

How do I change this? I'm not sure if I need to be doing something in
DNS or not.

Cheers.

It all depends on what sort of alias you want to do. Some are
possible. Others are impossible no matter what. Still others require
add-on modules (either for-free or for-fee) to work.

Please clarify what you mean by "a bit more user friendly" with an
example URL.

Just create a virtual directory with the name of "/med" and copy the
vdir settings of /meditationsuite.
