ASP.net URL rewrite between 2 sites

I have 2 websites on the same web server. One server is called static.net and the other is live.com.

I have a page on static.net that I wish to be URL-rewritten to a page on live.com. Is it possible to do this?

It's a design problem I can solve by moving a lot of files and folders around but I would really like to avoid this if possible. If it's not possible, does anyone have any ideas that can help me get around this?

URL rewriting can only change what's shown to the right of the hostname and "/" in a URL: so it won't be possible to rewrite an URL to a different host.

You can, in your program code, use HttpContext.Current.Redirect() to perform a full redirect of the client browser to the other URL. This performs a full postback -- it sends an HTTP 301 or 302 to the other site, effectively telling your users that your page has been moved.
