Make sure to use the PATH module and assign your external URL to an
alias matching the old path.

So for example in my old site I have example.com/foo.php and
example.com/bar.php.  I store these in a directory oldsite under the
Drupal root directory then in my drupal admin/config/search/path UI I
add http://example.com/oldsite/foo.php aliased to foo.php and
http://example.com/oldsite/bar.php aliased to bar.php.  Then the user
will still see example.com/foo.php and example.com/bar.php.  This also
leaves your search engine links in tact.

Good luck,
