Question

Answer 1

You can only redirect domain names and subdomains with dns not a path like /images. Use a file images/index.htm to redirect using <meta refresh>

Answer 2

In the /images directory, make a file called index.php, in this you write:

<?php

header("Location: notfound.php");

?>

And this should work.

What it does it when you enter /images directory, it'll automatically go to index.php seeing as it's the index page of the directory, and then the code will redirect the user to the specified page.

Answer 3

Well, you do not do a directory redirect with the DNS. You use the redirect command within the site for directory moves. DNS is used for the SITE not a subsection or directory.

Here is a complete list of methods to redirect a directory within your site.
