I'm working on dropping HTTP for an Apache instance. Is there a way for the server to seamlessly redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS? Ideally I'd like the server to receive an HTTP request and give the client HTTPS with no user action required. A redirect or something the browser can do on its own is fine, but I don't want the user to perform any special actions.

In case it matters, the HTTP site uses the short hostname (e.g. http://myiserver/) and the HTTPS site has to use the fully-qualified name (e.g. https://myiserver.domain.com/).

TIA
