Thanks Colin.

 

 

I listed my reqs incorrectly.

 

W

 

hen a customer goes to the site https://mywebsite.mydomain.com they should be redirected to https://mywebsite.mydomain.com/index.html.

 

 

Once logged into the site if they click "help" they should get redirected to https://mywebsite.mydomain.com/help/index.html.

 

 

Currently with no Rule in place when they click "help" it tries to send them back to http instead of keeping them https and it does not append the /index.html. Currently there is no 80 to 443 redirect because an https link/shortcut is copied and saved on everyones desktop via login script, but as you can guess this cause frustration for users that do not log into our domain often or ever. In the future we may add the http2https functionality and if I can come up with a good working rule for this now that covers all of the above reqs then I can probably push to get it implemented all at once.

 

 

Thank you for your help
