httpd.ini file and IIS

Anyone had any experience with these? Do you just upload them to the root of the site?

Thought IIS was managed through the Server Manager,

httpd is for apache.

Think it might be something to do with URL rewriting for older versions of IIS. IIS7 has its own rewriting system which you can configure through web.config if your server supports it.

yea, it is an ISAPI rewrite and yes, i thought that the httpd.ini file was more an apache thing but we are running IIS7 so I'll look into writing an alternative.

Long story short, a client's SEO company has given us this as an optimisation to their site, from what I can see, it rewrites the url to the main one if any other variation is sent over.
