    Default IIS Question

    Being only semi technical, I'm struggling to formulate a good search in google to find this answer, so:

    Can someone point me at an article that explains how to force the WWW into the url on our website?

    I need to do this to prevent securty certificate errors for the occassional customer.

    Thanks.

    What specific error are you getting? Have you tried Verisign?

    https://knowledge.verisign.com/search/searchResults.do

    I started poking around there and it seems to have what you might be looking for.

    Hope that helps!

    If the user hits a url without a www in it while in https, it IE generates a Certificate error (invalid), since we purchased the cert for the www domain.

    So to prevent confusion, I just wanted to force all non-www url requests to the correct www url.

    That gives me some ideas. Thanks. I had been playing with an <--Include file--> situation already. This might be enough to tweak it.

    For the rest of you that are dumb like me, there's also an AppConfig that handles this... RedirectLive

    LOL.

    Yes, the "typical" setup is:

    SSL installed on yourdomain . com (spaces so it's not a live url here)
    AppConfig: LiveServer=yourdomain.com
    AppConfig: RedirectLiveToWWW=true
