Is there a way to rename a WebFOCUS Dashboard URL to a more user friendly name?

I need to rename http://servername/ibi_apps/bid/af_mpv
to something easier, like: http://crm.reports.com

Do something like this:

Create an html file called default.html or index.html (or whatever default page name the web server has been set up for).

The content of the html file:



< !doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">

Assuming that the network name 'crm.reports.com' is resolved into the web server whith the WebFOCUS dashboard installation, there is quite a simple solution:
Put the the default page (usually index.htm, or default.html, or something similar - depends on your web server, and its configuration) in your web server "starting" directory (for example: C:\Inetpup\wwwroot for IIS), and let the page to redirect to Dashboard:



<script type="text/javascript">
function gotoBID() {
document.forms[0].submit();
}

There are other possibilities like servlet mapping, and web server aliases, but the above method seems to be most effortless.

Edited after sending:
I noticed that the question is already answered, and the page redirection method sent by Pietro is more elegant, and demands less typing as well.
