RE: Force the use of SSL connection

In your index.html page for your non-secure port put in some javascript like
the following:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--  
 top.location.href = "https://mysecuredomain.com";;
  -->
</script>

That is how I have done it anyway. . .

Subject: [WEB400] Force the use of SSL connection


Hi,
 
We are running iSeries Apache with Websphere Express 5.0 and HATSLE.
 
We have obtained a Verisign certificate but I want the web server to only 
connect using HTTPS.
 
I have set things up and it kind of works.
 
If I try to connect to http://ours.com:8080 it won't work but if I try 
https://ours.com:9443 it will work. If I then try http://ours.com:8080 
again it will work.
 
What I want is all connections to require SSL so nothing will go 
through unencrypted.
 
How do I do this? I am somewhat of a beginner.
 
TIA
 
Nathan
