Redirector

Redirector

The term redirector in computer networking and operating systems has several dissimilar meanings:

* Network redirectors provide access to file systems and printers on other computers on a network, translating between protocols as required.
* COM port redirectors for Windows operating systems relay serial data between a "virtual" COM port and a serial device server or modem server on a network. TTY redirectors perform the same function for UNIX/Linux operating systems.
* URL redirection: URLs are rewritten prior to processing by a web server.
* Domain redirectors and frame redirectors affect the display of web pages.
* The registry redirector in the Windows operating system intercepts registry calls to allow 32-bit applications to use the Windows registry on 64-bit operating systems.
