kinda complicated redirect question

[ahevans]

Hi all

I'm seriously struggling with finding a solution for the following problem in asp .net.

I have an IIS server which hosts one site but IIS uses host headers to accept two different URLs. The site is in ASP .Net and is a dynamic site that runs off default.aspx in the root (no subdirectories or other files). One url is

http://www.domain.com

and the other

http://nww.domain.com

(note the nww as it's an intranet site).

What I want to do is if it is if a user requests

http://nww.domain.com,

change this to

https://nww.domain.com

(SSL) without affecting the GET variables which may come after the doument in the request e.g.

http://nww/domain.com/default.aspx?df=456&g=5

should become

https://nww/domain.com/default.aspx?df=456&g=5

Anyone have an idea how I can achieve this?

Thanks

take a look at URL Rewriting concept dude,

try this link:

If all you want to do is to force a redirect to an https site is to include the following code:

protected void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_PORT"] == "80")
    {
        string strSecureURL;
        strSecureURL = "[URL unfurl="true"]https://";[/URL]
        strSecureURL = strSecureURL + Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_NAME"];
        strSecureURL = strSecureURL + Request.ServerVariables["URL"];
        Response.Redirect(strSecureURL);
    }
}

If you are using ASP.NET 2.0, you can include this code in the code behind file of the master page of the site. Otherwise, you'll have to figure out a way to include the code in every page in the site that you want to force SSL.

thats what HttpModules will do...

Will this work?

<%
if Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME") = "nww.domain.com" then
Redirect_URL = "

https://"

& Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME") & Request.ServerVariables("URL") & "?" & Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING")

Response.Redirect(Redirect_URL)
end if
%>

It should do but vbkris has pointed out probably the best method to implement the redirect.
