Re: change i hosted domain to a subdomain

Why would you redirect from one server to another use a landing page when
you could just redirect to a new public IP on the DNS side of things?

As I said your network guy should know how to do that.  Then just have him
send xyz.abc.com to your IBM i and it's pretty simple.  No need for extra
links in the chain, especially port 80 which is rarely used for internet
based web sites any more.
