What if the old site has scripts and folders which the new site won't have?

So when visitors run into http://oldsite.com/forum/forum.cgi

It will run into the 404 error msg of site! I know I can change the error msgs of my site to redirect all error msgs to main site!

However that's quite insufficient! Any other suggestions?
