I usually use a .htaccess file.  You could do something like

Redirect / http://www.sistina.com/gfs/

which should do the redirection you're looking for.  The question
becomes, do you want sub-paths to be automatically redirected as well? 
I think this should work as I showed above.  Type in
`http://www.globalfilesystem.org/path/to/blah', and I think you will get
redirected to `http://www.sistina.com/gfs/path/to/blah'.

At any rate, you may want/need to set up a nice 404 document, which you
can specify with the `ErrorDocument' directive:

ErrorDocument 404 /gfs/path/to/fourohfour.html
