301 Redirect for PDF file

Question

What's the easiest way to go about redirecting a URL like this:

http://domain.tld/my%20file.pdf

To another URL:

http://anotherdomain.tld/another%20file.pdf

This is a website and I do have access to IIS (6). Is there a way to do this just within IIS?

I've read a little about ISAPI plug-ins, though I've never done this. Is this the only way? I've been handed a site I haven't yet been able to build (just using Open Website... in VS 2010.) So I'm not even sure I can write an HTTP module if that's another option. My current error has something to do with an English section that has another web.config.

Error 6 It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS. C:\path\to\site\englishsubdirectory\app\Web.config

@SreenathSoman Can you put that in an answer? I misread, and I just had to click down the file itself in IIS and add the redirect there. — David Fox, Sep 11 '12 at 16:11
