Solution:
I created an A-record in the DNS named www2 that redirect to my IP and in
my IIS I configured the hostheader with a www2.mysite.com.
Tnx all!

If you cannot change anything in IIS, what solution do you want us to give
you that involves "configuring IIS"?

Sounds like mission impossible.

I can however not understand why you want to do a redirect, when you
obviously want the server in Switzerland to take care of the hosting. Why
not edit the DNS for the name, and point the domain name to the IP of the
server in Switzerland instead of the one in Italy. That sounds much
smarter.

Or have i misunderstood your question?
