Hi, I am setting up Apache 2 sever on Linux system. Sorry beause of a newbie question. Instead of Redirect URL, do we have any syntax in httpd.conf file to redirect port (80) to other port (443)?

Thanks for you help.

Hiep

Don't think so, best bet is to just have a webpage redirect via some java script or something.

I'm not sure exactly how this is done. However, if you look at the httpd.conf for a cpanel server, they set all aliases that end in /cpanel to redirect to a simple script. Inside that script is basically just a redirect to the port. I'm sure you could set up something like that.

Hiep,

I have never done this before but I have done other things like it.

Take a look at the mod_rewrite module in Apache. Specifically take a at the %{SERVER_PORT} variable.

I am sure you already know but also realize that normal usage of port 80 is for http protocol and 443 is for https.

Good luck and post back to let me know if this worked for you
