Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

I have set up a couple of virtual directories on an intranet server. My
question is if these virtual directories are secure using SSL.

These virtual directories are map to a users home directory on a network
server (\\server\fileshare). Webdav is enabled. I also have installed an
SSL certificate on the intranet server and have required ssl and 128 bit
encryption turned on. Users are required to input a user name and password
using basic authentication to get to the intranet site. When the user gets
to the home page it is encrypted (the lock appears in the lower right hand
of the browser). I have enabled require 128 bit encryption and ssl on each
of the virtual directories. However, when a users clicks on the link to
her/his home directory they receive a message "You are about the leave a
secure internet connection..." When the virtual directory opens as a web
folder there is also no lock in the lower right hand corner of the browser
window. Are these encrypted using SSL or not? Any assistance would be
appreciated.

What is the code for the link to their home directories?
Is it <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://" target="_blank">http://</a> or <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="https://" target="_blank">https://</a>

Also, the users directories seem to be located on another
server. This could aslo be your issue.

The code for the link is <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="https://" target="_blank">https://</a> and the user directories are located on
another server.

When a user logs into the intranet the link is something like
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="https://intranet.server.com." target="_blank">https://intranet.server.com.</a> I setup a database return all links for each
user based on username so each user is customized and dynamic. When the
click on the link it will take them to a virtual directory which a mapped
server drive (\\server\share). To the user is looks like
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="https://intranet.server.com/virtualdirectoryname." target="_blank">https://intranet.server.com/virtualdirectoryname.</a> The lock does not appear
in the lower right hand corner when he/she opens a virtual directory as a
web folder which makes me think it is not encrypted.

You're right. It's not encrypted because the content is
coming from a separate server.

Is there anything that can be done to encrypt access even though the file
share exists on a network share?

If not... What is not encrypted? Are user names and passwords passing from
the user machine to the server share? Or are the file transfers that occur
not encrypted? Or both?

Thanks for all of your help.
