I have a SharePoint portal that I need to switch to SSL. I have done
everything except selecting Require Secure Channel. Before I do this,
is there a way to redirect http traffic to https, so that existing
bookmarks will work?

Here is what I have tried so far:
I tried the suggestions at
http://blog.opsan.com/archive/2005/10/19/1979.aspx, but It won't execute
the aspx page. I created the file in it's own virtual directory,
excluded the directory from SharePoint, created a web.config to allow
the file to run, and set the virtual directory to allow insecure
traffic. If I navigate to the page directly, it works. but when I set
the 403.4 error to use the page, I just get the standard error.

Hi Shawn,

Sharepoint is essentailly one web application which doesn't provide one
redirection functionality to change the url. We will need to find the
method out of Sharepoint. I have two suggestions for your scenario:
1. if there is one ISA server between your sharepoint server and client,
you could use it to rewrite the url: change the http url to https.

2. you could write one isapi filter and use to change the http request to
https. There is one sample from Microsoft SDK on the url processing:
How to make an ISAPI redirection filter
http://www.codeproject.com/isapi/isapiredirector.asp
*please configure it at the IIS virtual server to sit before the Sharepoint
filter stsfltr.dll. This is required that your filter will change the url
before the sharepoint processing. If not, sharepoint will receive the
original request url. This kb article introduces the steps:
How To Install an ISAPI Filter Dynamic-Link Library
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q150312/

In addition, this article introduce all the necessary configuration for
using SSL in Sharepoint.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further question on this
matter.
