The switch is by appending https to your links instead of http.  If you
want, you can give both web servers the same document root.  Haven't thought
through completely, but I suppose you could have the logon screen be https
explicitly, and all the other pages relative references, so once you've
switched to https you would stay there.  Seems full of holes though -
someone could simply remove the "s" in https, backpage or any of a dozen
other things.  To be truly secure, I would have the two sites completely
independent of each other.

Subject: Automatic change from http to https when password is required


Hi, 

is there a possibility to switch automatically from http to https as soon
as a password is required to access a web page? The setup for the http and
https server is identical.

For any hints thank you in advance
        Harald
