Since your linux router is fowarding all port 80 traffic, and it get send to
IIS. when the request reach IIS and IIS check that this host header doesn't
belong to the IIS box, it will return 'no website configure for this
address' or etc error. If you want IIS to redirect, I guess you need to
setup another name.

www/linux.XXX.com
www -> local
linux -> redirect to yyy.XXX.com

where IIS able to resolve yyy.XXX.com and etc.

just a theory :) you can try.

of coz the best.. if you can configure your linux box. to check header
request. if linux.XXX.com stay local, other forward to IIS box.
