I'm running Sharepoint 2003 on Win 2003 Svr and I'd like to enforce SSL
connection to the portal. I've set up SSL correctly, so I can only access
via https, but I'd like to automatically redirect anyone coming in on the
http port to the https port. I did a web search, but haven't been able to
find somethat that allows a simple http->https port redirect. Can anyone
help me?

Thanks!

Matt

With your SSL-enabled site, change the none-SSL port to something besides
80.

Then, set up a second site that listens on port 80, and have it redirect to
the https address/port.

A custom 403.4 (SSL Required) error page is the usual way to do this. Then
use an ASP.NET, or ASP or plain HTML page to do an appropriate redirect.

Cheers

This was the simplest solution and works like a charm. Thanks to everyone's
suggestions!
