Parameters

key

newValue

Copy 

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.SharePoint;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration;

namespace MapCustomAppPage
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://MyServer"))
            {
                //Get a reference to the web application.
                SPWebApplication webApp = site.WebApplication;

                //Update AccessDenied application page to AxsDnd.aspx.
                webApp.UpdateMappedPage(SPWebApplication.SPCustomPage.AccessDenied, "/_layouts/SubFolder/AxsDnd.aspx");
                webApp.Update();

                //Output the newly assigned application page.
                Console.Out.WriteLine(webApp.GetMappedPage(SPWebApplication.SPCustomPage.AccessDenied));

                //Reset the mapping to the default application page.
                webApp.UpdateMappedPage(SPWebApplication.SPCustomPage.AccessDenied, null);
                webApp.Update();

                Console.Out.WriteLine("Press any key...");
                Console.ReadKey();
            }
        }
    }
}

Similar Method in MOSS 2007
I know SPWebApplication.UpdateMappedPage is a new method in MOSS 2010. Does MOSS 2007 have something similar so that we can map accessdenied.aspx page?
