Sub-domain Redirect > Https > Password Protected D

[finishdish]

Hello TCH Family Members.

I have a password protected directory that I'd like users to get to via https in order to secure their login information. Is that possible in conjunction with a sub domain re-direct?

 

I currently have the subdomain redirect set to example: https://serverxx.totalchoicehosting.com/me/protected_dir/

 

The subdomain is re-directing to the proper dir, but is asking for the directory login before kicking in the ssl (password sent in the clear). Once you enter the directory login info, the directory asks for the login again, this time apparently with ssl enabled (password encrypted).

 

Any thoughts on why it's asking for the login twice, or how I might be able to accomplish this in another way?

 

Thanks (really),

Joe
