Changing the site from .cfm to .net? Scared :)

[dskaushik]

My clients want to change the site from cold fusion to .net. Now the problem is loosing all the indexed pages. Whats the best was to may the change without loosing the indexed page.

just use simple rewrite in .htaccess that even .gif files can contain HTML data :)

Though if he's going to be using .NET, he won't likely be using apache.

Arpecop is talking about changing the way the individual pages are processed on the server. Assuming you're using IIS, there should be a way to set it up so that all your .cfm pages are parsed using .NET. That way you won't need to change the filenames on any of your browser-accessible files.
