Redirect problems

Redirect problems

Hi All...

I know that this may seem very trivial, but I just can't get this to work!
I'm trying to set up a redirect on one of our servers to go from a non-https
page to https. The https site is already on the server. I created a second
site with a redirect page running on port 80 with the following text:






Redirecting. . . .


If your browser fails to redirect, click the link below






The redirect works fine, with one exception: the server prompts the user for
authentication with the following dialog box:

Authentication Required

Enter username and password for "" at port 80>

When I set up the site, I made sure to set "allow anonymous access to this
site". The server in question is not a domain controller, nor is it even a
member of a domain.

Any ideas on this?

One thing that I forgot to mention is that if I enter administrative
credentials, the redifect works. Also, if I try to run the redirect by
doulble-clicking the redirect htm page directly on the server, I am not
prompted to authenticate. So for some reason, the redirect site appears to
*require* administrative credentials to proceed. This is something that I
don't want. I just want a simple redirect.

Thanks again!
