? Thanks for the goggle. Unfortunately a lot of those sites are one's I have hit and say the same thing and say it for both IIS 5 and IIS 6 - Use an asp script as a custom error and point the application pool on the default web site to exchange. They also say that any directories other then exchange have to be done individually. (MS article 839357) The script seems to only cover OWA but leaves OMA in clear text mode. It also doesn't seem to force encryption when user's use the change password in OWA. Since we didn't have to use a script in IIS 5, are the re-direct to a URL is still in IIS 6, I am unsure why it doesn't work. Maybe I am miss understanding who the scripts work, since I don't have a strong knowledge of ASP code. Can you assist in clarifying my understanding? Thanks for your time.

In windows 2000/exchange 2003 SP 1 - We have a FE/BE arrangement with the following FE server setup. DNS set to mail.ccbcmd.edu IIS 5 - default web site settings Set to redirect to a url - https://mail.ccbcmd.edu/exchange set it as a perment redirect and a folder under this one. Aynomyous and basic authenication is checked and domain name is entered force SSL is checked at the default web site. Exchange - form based authenication is checked and working When a user types mail.ccbcmd.edu they get re-directed to https://mail.ccbcmd.edu <https://mail.ccbcmd.edu/> . they are not required to type the https. In windows 2003/exchange 2003 SP 1 DNS set to mail.ccbcmd.edu IIS 6 - default web site settings Set to redirect to a url - https://mail.ccbcmd.edu/exchange set it as a perment redirect and a folder under this one. Aynomyous and basic authenication is checked and domain name is entered force SSL is checked at the default web site. Exchange - form based authenication is checked and working When a user types mail.ccbcmd.edu they get a notice that they must type https. I would like help on find out how to re-directed to https://mail.ccbcmd.edu <https://mail.ccbcmd.edu/> so that they are not required to type the https like we have in our current IIS 5 setup.. We need to have force SSL on the entire web site not just exchweb directory for other security reasons. thanks for your assistance, Elizabeth Thompson
