hello world, i have this webserver (apache 2.2.15 redhat) on which i want a vhost with ssl. i only want one nic, so i configured a new public ip to nat its port 443 into my local ssl port (not 443) for the vhost. The nat tunnels are open and works as expected. However when i setup apache to listen on the nonstandard ssl port and enable ssl, the client/browser is met with a requirement to switch to https. http://web.site:443 gives: 400 bad request yada yada please visit https://web.site So i want apache to allow 443 on standard http protocol to automatically forward to https protocol. I tried rewriting the url to use https; though rewriting rules was not respected at all... How can i do this? br congo --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
