Hello, I'm updating around 15 pages from .asp to .aspx (.net 2.0)

My question is, do I have to put a header redirect 301 (permanent redirect) on each old file, or can I put it in global.asax file with a case checking for any of the 15 files?

I some tries to go to old.asp will it execute global.asax anyway?

What would the best aproach be?

Thanks!

Diego

I can do that locally (I guess, since I never tried it), but the final site should go to a shared hosting...

assuming your shared hosting provider has the IIS7 rewrite module installed it will still work. The rewrites are stored in the web.config file. So if you upload it it should still work.
