You shouldnt be afraid of virtual hosts.....

If you split them up as vhosts, then you can do what you want. If you don't, you can't.
In my example i used seperate DocRoot's, but this is not necessary.

P.S. can you fix your PC's clock?  your timezone is 13 hours out.

 This server is not running with virtual hosts (only a single domain), the
doc root for SSL and non-SSL is the same. Anyway I can do the automatic
redirect without moving the doc roots around?

 Thanks for your help.

Use VirtualHost stanzas:

ie:

<VirtualHost _default_:80>
        ServerName www.foo.com
        Redirect    /private      https://www.foo.com/private
        DocumentRoot "htdocs"
</VirtualHost>

<ifdefine SSL>
<VirtualHost _default_:443>
        ServerName www.foo.com
        SSLCertificateFile conf/ssl.crt/server.crt
        SSLCertificateKeyFile conf/ssl.key/server.key
        SSLEngine on
        DocumentRoot "secure"
</VirtualHost>
</ifdefine>

Hello,

My apologies if this has been discussed before, I did not turn up much in
      

my
  

archive search. I am new to modssl and to this list. Any help you can
      

provide
  

would be greatly appreciated.

I have a server wide SSL certificate for my domain, but only need SSL
support in certain areas. Is there a way to redirect non SSL requests (port
80) for particular directories to SSL without requiring the user to to do
anything? So automatically:

http://www.foo.com/private/

becomes

https://www.foo.com/private

I am currently using the SSLRequireSSL directive to lock out non-SSL
connections to those directories, resulting in a error to the user.

I have tried a location specific redirect like the following, but ended up
with a loop (and a couple thousand extra entries in my log file).

   <Location /private>
   Redirect seeother /private https://www.foo.com/private
   </Location>

Am I on the right track or making this to difficult? I have no mod-rewrite
skills, so have not tried that route as of yet.

Thanks in advance.
