I've installed DNN 4.8 I have everything up and running and it works great. I have set up 3 portals, the main one and two others. I have the Authentication module working in it's default place and the default user management set up.

I have a windows 2003 web server with IIS 6 in place and I have DNN set up on it's own IP address with it's own database and worker process group (application pool), for DNS I point the domain names of the three portals to the IP address for DNN virtual web site and use host headers to accept those domain names in that web site tree within the IIS 6 MMC. This all works fine when typing in the the url going to each site and using the Login module and user profile mangement module, each site's members are good for each site but not each other, the accounts do not cross.

So I want to set up an https connection for the login page and the user profile management pages, I have installed a test certificate on my IIS server for this web site which has it's dedicated IP address for the DNN virtual directory, that went fine.

The cert is set up for the domain name of the main DNN portal. How can I set up https connections for all of the portals' login and user profile management pages. Will the single IP address and various domain names for each portal create an issue?

Is there a way to set up each login and user management page to use a https connection for every DNN portal with seperate domain names for each even though they all reside on one IP address with the cert domain name being one ofthe portal domain names but being different from the others?

Thanks

Yes the domains are all different domains, I have a test cert installed on that IP address space on my server and I'll re-configure the url resolution becuase the way I have it now I have host headers for each domain name on my DNN website on IIS 6, but after reading up on portal set up in DNN it seems that I should only have the host header for the main portal set up on that IIS website and let the DNN name resolution do the work for the other domain names through the Portal Management section of the Host admin.

After I set this up, I'll see how the test cert behaves when I try to use a https connection for each site, then report back here what I find.

Is there a way to make sure the Login page and User Management page uses a https connection using the default locations? I have it all working and don't want to change things too much, so if I can set something in the admin that makes sure the login and user profile pages for each portal uses a https connection without making it redirect to another url I'd like to do it that way, if anyone can point me in the right direction with how to do that.

Thanks
