  1. If we close our website, does this close the email?

    How do we put the Winhost "site under construction" back into service?

  2. I think the best approach is to put a "index.html" file in your root directory and just fill it with a brief message saying "This website is currently under construction." or something along the lines of that.
     
  3. Upload an htm file named "app_offline.htm" in the root directory to disable your site. Basically, if you place a file with this name in the root of a web application directory, ASP.NET 2.0 will shut-down the application, unload the application domain from the server, and stop processing any new incoming requests for that application.

    You can read a little more on this through the following link.
     
  4. Yes.
     
  5. Thanks, SleepWalker -- I did mention that I wanted it to be the "Winhost" page.

    But Cool, let's put Rey's avatar on there (or Hank?).
