How can I redirect nonssl requests to ssl?

[Former Member]

I would like to have non ssl http requests be redirected to ssl. For example, when I go to http://<servername>:50000, I would like it to redirect me to https:<servername>:50001. I would like to not use unencrypted traffic at all since the usernames and passwords would be sent cleartext. SSL communications are working on the server, I just want to redirect to ssl if possible.

Thanks for helping. If I can give any other detail or clarification, let me know.

Thankyou so much. I looked and looked and did not find anyhting. I must have been using the wrong key words. I even opened up an OSS message with no luck. I just did it and it works exactly how I wanted it to.
