I would like to redirect my old domain to my new domain.

I'm using network solutions for a host, and I haven't assigned my old domain to my web hosting package yet because I have forwarding set up to the new domain, and I want to make sure I have the right code before I end the forwarding and transfer the domain.

In my .htaccess file my code is:

html>redirect 301 / http://www.samcowholesalesales.com/ </html>

Is that all there is to it?

Right now since I haven't assigned a Domain, you can view the site at http://035e970.netsolhost.com/
When you go to it, it returns an internal server error. Is that because I have the redirect file but have not assigned a domain?

Thanks
Mark

Do you have that exact line in your .htacces, with the HTML bits? If so, that's probably the reason for the server error. They shouldn't be there. Any incorrectness in a .htaccess file will have that result.

That was it. Thank you. I don't know what I was thinking putting it in the tags.
