I'm kind of new at this server management stuff, so please bare with me. What I want to do is redirect site.MyDomain.com to my files hosted on alternateurl.com which is on a different server.
Only I want it to look like you're still on site.MyDomain.com when in reality you're really on the other server. I know this is possible but how do I go about doing it?

You can do it like 'domain mask forwarding'
Just use an index.html page in /site folder with
<html>
<head>
<title>Your title</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="1,*" frameborder="no" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame name="blankFrame" src="blank.htm" border="0" scrolling="no" noresize>
<frame name="mainFrame" src="alternateurl.com" border="0">
</frameset>
</html>

Another way of doing it, if you have access to manage the DNS and web servers, would be to point site.MyDomain.com to the IP address of alternateurl.com.
In the web server of alternateurl.com, add the host header (or ServerAlias site.MyDomain.com).
You should make sure that a different server name doesn't affect your web application.
