Can someone tell me how to monitor IIS to see if users are using http or
https to access my site. Internet users should be using HTTPS, and users on
the Intranet should use HTTP. How can I monitor this activity.

Thanks

Is there any issue with monitoring the IIS log files.

By default, HTTP users come over port 80, HTTPS over port 443. And
Client-IP should reveal whether users are Intranet or Internet.

IIS supports custom modules written by 3rd party to monitor activity
such as you describe, but they do not come with IIS by default.

David, can the IIS log files or a Network Monitor capture provide this
information?

Thanks

IIS log will captures the information, just ensure the relevant fileds are
checked for the log format.

IIS log files can contain the relevant information, assuming you
configured the necessary fields to be logged.

Default settings for IIS should have logging enabled and all the
relevant fields enabled and logged, so you just need to run Log Parser
on your log file to do processing and you are done.

Do you want to just monitor? Or force?

If you don't mind forcing this, just make two separate virtual webs and use
"force ssl" on the internal one.

At that point, monitoring will be irrelevant.
