Hello All,

I do not think that I have a unique situation and/or configuration
problem but for some reason I can't find anything on this problem out
there.

Here's the problem:

I have a single apache (1.3) server with an ssl site configured
correctly on port 443. We have an intranet environment where it is
acceptable to connect to this apache server on port 80 but this server
also serves ineternet requests and I want all those requests to
automatically roll over to port 443.

So for example if the request is coming from an ip address that looks
like this "10.5.100.200" it may go to port 80 but any other requesting
ip address (other than starting with 10.x.x.x) should roll over to port 443.

If you can me out, I thank you in advance.

Shawn

i put this and it appears is not working:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^10\. [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}$1 [R,L]

Any thoughts????

thanks in advance.

Try using (untested):

RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^10\.
RewriteRule ...

Remember to put this where it will only be invoked if the connection is
not already secure, otherwise you will create a loop.

Well, there is no effective way for me to know that; so, I was thinking
maybe I can put in another rule such as this:

RewriteRule %{SERVER_PORT} = 80

to make sure it only fires off when and if server port is 80!

What do you think?

If this is possible, which rules should be listed first, i wonder?

thanks

That's not a rule. You want to do it as another condition. RewriteCond
are anded by default. Just put multiple RewriteCond statements
preceding your RewriteRule.

Good deal! I added the conditions one after the other and the rule right
after them. i'll have to test from home to see how it works. thanks much
for your time.

Jim,
I tested from home and it all worked well. The only thing I had to
change was that I had to take out the equal sign from the SERVER_PORT
condition. It does not need an equal sign. I guess it does the
comparison automatically.

Thanks,

Thanks! I have almost the same thing as you have in here. Mine looks
like this:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^10\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80
RewriteRule ^(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}$1 [R,L]

I added the server port check to make sure it doesn't go in a loop. the
remote address is a better variable because it checks for the ip number.

what does http referer return, ip or the dns name?

thanks
