301 redirect bulk aspx urls on IIS

Question

We recently relaunched an old aspx site as a new Drupal site on the same domain. No 301 redirect was implemented.

I have outputted a list of 1000 urls that need to be 301 redirected. Most of the urls are the results of search queries that were committed on the website. IE

http://www.mysite.com/electronics/CommunityDetails.aspx?FirstLetter=%&ID=444

We are running a Drupal site on IIS using a php plugin. Is there a way I can wild card a redirect of all aspx pages? I know I can do it in .htaccess but that doesn't apply here. Any suggestions appreciated. thanks

take a look at http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/older-versions/deployment/using-asp-net-mvc-with-different-versions-of-iis-cs to wild card route, I don't know what version of IIS you are using, it's much easier in IIS 7.5. - I've set up a Redirection rule (after I've installed the "URL Rewrite" IIS module. )

Here's is the rule: Request URL: Matches the Pattern Using: Wildcards Pattern: (.*) Logical grouping: Match All Input {HTTP_HOST} Type: Matches the PAttern Pattern: www.mydomainname.com.com Action Type: Redirect Redirect URL: mydomainname.com{R:1} Redirect Type: 301
