How to force login via SSL ?

Hello,

 

Is there an easy way to force username and password not to be sent over plain text but via SSL ?

 

I've tried seting <form action="https://host/cs_login" but unfortunately it redirects me back to http.

 

Thanks for advice,

Tomek

Tomek,

 

I'll investigate this and get back to you tomorrow.  Are you looking to secure your entire site or just the login? 

 

Thanks,

Austen

Looks like the redirection out to http was apache fault not CS. After this was configured properly, absolute urls in login forms did the job.

 

Thanks anyway

Hi,

 

I want to achieve the same setup. Could you share your apache setup ? Did you modify anything on Clearspace of java application (ie Tomcat) side ?

 

Thanks,

Alex

As you read in my previous post, i would also like to get this Apache conf. Until now i was only able to secure the whole site or nothing, but not only the login pages
