I would like to migrate a site, but the new URL’s are completely different from the old URL’s. I do not want to break my old sites links that are out there on the web. Is there a way to extract all the links from a site so I can generate a redirect table (I will probably put the redirects on the web server level)? The old is on ASP.NET with SQL server 2008 by the way. Am open to crawling the site or mining the SQL database, but need some help or advice.

You could use IIS Seo Optimalization Toolkit for that. http://www.iis.net/download/seotoolkit
With that tool you can spider the entire website. Then when the report finishes, go to Content -> Host summary and double click the host of the website. There you have a complete list of all spedered URL’s.
And ofcourse, when you have these url’s, you can make URL rewrite of routing mechanisms available to 301 to the right content on the new website.
