Shared SSL TutorialIf you login into the FTP server you will notice a directory called SSL in your root folder, this directory is not visible with the Microsoft® FrontPage® editor. The SSL directory is a virtual directory in FTP that points to a physical directory on a different server. |

The shared SSL server works like this: You will design your web pages as normal on your web site and then when you need a secured connection you will place a link to https://secure.chambergates.com/yourdir/yourpage.html. When you do this the user will be transferred to the secure server to complete their transactions. You will then be able to redirect them back to your site with a link to your web site. Since this is a completely different server all image files you use will have to be replicated and there is no way to preserve ASP session variables between two servers. The Microsoft FrontPage editor really has no facility to make any of this transparent and you will have to use FTP to place files on the secured server. You can however use the Microsoft FrontPage editor to design your site and then upload this to the secure server. | |
