Hello,

We are running an intranet that can be accessed only through "https"; but I
need to show a "dead page". This so-called dead-page will be an http page
that will redirect to the https page after successful authentication (we are
using Integrated Authentication). Obviously this "http" page cannot live on
the same website since it will never be accessible w/o authentication. By
doing this users can then set this "http" page as the default page for the
browser. Once on this page they will have a link to the "https" that will
authenticate them.

I hope I have managed to clearly convey my problem. Any help is greatly
appreciated.

Cheers...
AG
