.htaccess files work on Linux servers rather than Windows.

To do a 301 permanently moved redirect on Windows you can use ASP instead with the following code


Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently"
Response.AddHeader "Location", "new_page_location.htm"
Response.End

Google themselves recommend a 301 redirect via .htaccess file. 

thats the best way to keep the rankings but you will also need to redirect each post to the new location of the post. I've never  did that before but seems a bit difficult if you have a big forum.
