The problem is that 'https' doesn't just specify the port, it also
tells the browser whether it needs to negotiate SSL/TLS or not.  If a
browser is pointed at http://something, it's not going to expect the
SSL negotiation and your user will see garbage.  The proper way to do
this is to have a minimal service running on port 80 providing 302's
for every request to https://<request>.  This is trivial to do in
Apache, and I'd be surprised if it wasn't trivial in IIS.
