Answer 1

You can use the Location header with a response code in the 3xx-range.

For an example:

HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Location: /my/server/page.html

Answer 2

301 and 302 HTTP codes can be used to redirect requests, like this:

HTTP/1.1 302 Object moved
Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2011 10:37:34 GMT
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Location: http://www.xyz.com/abc
