Re: Masking URLs in IIS

 A frame is just a web page in a web page. In the address bar you only
see the address of the frame definition, but the URL of the frame data
needs to be defined in the frame code. The browser needs to know where
to request the info for the frames.
Frames are BAD, don't use them.

I heard  that I can use a frame element and set the value to hidden. Since I didn't find much supported documents for 
that, hence my post.

Thanks for replying Robin.

Hello All,

I would like to know what's the most secure way of masking your  URLs. Example would be if I have 
http://servername.domain.com:234, if I need to put this link on a website how can I convert this to something else 
that is not telling everyone the server name and what port I have open?

The web servers are all running IIS.

You can't, if you want someone to use the link then you have to give
it to them, it is like asking someone to deliver you a parcel but
wanting to avoid giving them your address.

If you used a url shortener then you would slightly obfuscate it but
as soon as someone followed the link their url bar would show the full
link.
