SiteA.com and siteB.com are .NET 2.0 apps on IIS6. SiteA uses SSL.

Can I set things up so siteA.com/train gets people to siteB.com?

Are there multiple ways to do this? How would a good way be configured?

+1  A: 

Go to MyComputer, right+mouse+click and chose Manage. Go to IIS/Websites and open up your sitename.com website.. navigate to the directory sitename.com/train. right+mouse+click on the train folder and chose "properties". Under the "directory" property click "create". I think that's what you're looking for.

You can't have a subdirectory of a site point to the root, and you can't have two site instances with the same domain name- the DNS record for www.sitename.com points to exactly one IP address. I think you'd be better off with something like http://train.sitename.com.

Can I have a subdirectory of ONE site point to the root of a DIFFERENT site on the same IIS server? Maybe using a virtual directory?

If so, that would do it. Redirection might also work but maybe not with SSL...?

Actually you can have two site instances with the same domain, one could work with www.domain.com and the other to only work on domain.com. DNS can distinguish between the two.
