Yes, but what I was saying is we cannot tell you how your isp has the server set up.  If you ask, they can tell you what you should be doing. 

 >>  so then all your ic pages stay in their same location (ie.
 >>  /catalogs/store/pages/...) and simply by calling https: instead of http:
 >>  the
 >>  pages become secured?
