Hi,

I have an IIS 5 server which is currently hosting our exchange 2003 outlook
web access over ssl.

I have also setup a redirect site on the server which will direct any
incoming http request to the https site (asp file using response.redirect).

Anyway - this was the only site running on this box so using host headers
was never a problem.

But I now have to host a separate site on the box (which also needs to be
ssl) - what I cant figure out is how to get both sites functioning with a
redirect and obviously using host headers.

For example the domain names are site1.domain.com and site2.domain.com - I
want the users to be able to put either one of those domain names into their
browsers (i.e. without having to put https:// in front of it) and they will
automatically get redirected to either https://site1.domain.com or
https://site2.domain.com

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Paul Adam
