Does anyone know how to point a domain name to a subdirectory within the Plesk 7.5 control panel for Windows? Google didn't turn anything up and SWSoft wants like $50 to reveal this mystery answer.

Essentially I want

http://mydomain2.com

to point to

http://mydomain1.com/2

I know I can set the base directory for a domain in IIS however for what I need that requites an NTFS junction and I was getting some funky permissions issues. I'm just looking for a simple control panel based solution to offer my clients.

Thanks,

Joe

If you create your domain without using a template and then use standard forwarding you can forward this domain to a URL such as http://www.yourdomain2.com/directory. Even possible to forward to specific file such as http://www.yourdomain2.com/directory/main.html, etc.
