immediate redirect when client attempts to access an HTTPS URL that will be going away

This is probably a silly question but I am going to ask it anyway ... We have a HTTPS site that we will be retiring in the near future. We want to redirect clients who attempt to browse to that site...

That is a good question. You would use the when HTTP_REQUEST syntax and use the http::redirect command. Something like this: 


when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { ([string tolower [HTTP::host]] contains "your.websitename.com")} {
HTTP::redirect "https://www.yournewwebsitename.com[HTTP::uri]"
}
}
