Running Apache 2.2 on IIS6,
Have config question probably easy one. Hoping just a directive i havent discovered yet.
I have a virutal host setup that I would like to point to an .exe file and give the end user the option to run it when going to the URL. Setup now, when i go to the url it opens a browseable directory with the link to the .exe file. I would like it to just open the .exe and prompt the user to open/save/cancel on the .exe file so i dont have to explain to them to click on the link for it. I had this working in IIS with simple URL redirect to the .exe file.
Any ideas would be greatly apprieciated.
thanks! |

you can set a redirect in your vhost
| Code: |
Redirect permanent / http://www.host.tld/path/to/your.exe
