Author Help!! -- SSL Configuration

Hello all...

I'm writing you because I want to configure an SSL site. I already added the
certificate (filename.cer) to IIS (6.0 on Win2003) but I want to know how to
assign certain folders to the https site. (for example: The "regular" site
is at C:\IPub\Wroot\MySite; I want the files in the folders
C:\IPub\Wroot\MySite\Folder1 and C:\IPub\Wroot\MySite\Folder2 to be accessed
via https)

Please give as many details as you can or point me to where a detail
explanation is available

TIA,
SB-R

You do not do this by the file system as NTFS has no impact on the SSL.
You need to go into the IIS manager and navigate to the website in
question. Select the website or virtual directory you want to be SSL
enforced. Right click and select properties, inside there you will see
directory security. Inside that you will see a section label 'secure
communications' inside there click the 'edit' button, once that opens up
select 'require secure channel' and 'force 128 bit encryption'
