We have moved a webapplication and would like to display a message in the old IIS. Let's say that the application was in http://oldserver/appname/. How do I make sure that our moved.html is displayed to the user no matter which uri the user browsed in to (in that virtual folder)?

Suggestion: Consider just using the 301 redirect suggested by Nathaniel bellow, without the message. Search engines will transfer pagerank (or similar indicator) to the new URL. With a message that might not happen. Search engines will think the content was deleted and will not transfer it to the new URLs. – Osvaldo Apr 9 '11 at 16:22
