Read moreI’ve been faced with this issue a few times. I simply want to force all traffic to the secure socket layer of my domain instead of the unencrypted side of things. Keep in mind that I’m a ASP classic kind of guy so I tend to think things the Microsoft way. I want all requests to the server to be directed to https – and this is how I did it. I created a text…
