[mapserver-users] URL redirection under IIS

[Richard Greenwood]

There is some useful info in
http://mapserver.org/ogc/wms_server.html#online-resource-wms especially the
MS_MAPFILE environment varaible. You have to reboot Windows to get IIS to
read the environment, which isn't too handy. And you don't need the '.exe'.
So I think you could pretty easily get it down to
http://servername/mapserver/mapserv
<http://servername/mapserver/mapserv.exe?map=c> if you only need one
mapfile. I'm not much of an IIS guy so others may have better answers.
