Set admin section under SSL
Hey,

I want to make the /umbraco folder run under https, but I'm getting stuck on doing it. I have tried with config/UrlRewriting.config and this code for testing:
```
<add name="test" 
    redirect="Domain"
    virtualUrl="^~/umbraco/(.*).aspx" 
    rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" 
    destinationUrl="http://www.google.com" 
    ignoreCase="true" />
```
But it's just ignoring me.

I'm sure that I'm not the first who want to achieve this... Which is the best way to do it? (For complex reasons, I cannot install anything on the server, which is running Win 2008 SP2, IIS 7 and .NET 3.5)

Thanks

We are still having issues with this. It's working on our local environment, but when we try on client server, it stops working. These are the environments:

Local: Windows 7, IIS 7.5, MSSQL 2005
Client: Windows 2008 SP2, IIS 7.0, MSSQL 2005

Current code is:

                 virtualUrl="http://localhost:81/umbraco/(.*)"
                 rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString"
                 destinationUrl="https://localhost:81/umbraco/$1"
                 ignoreCase="true"
                 redirect="Domain"
                 redirectMode="Permanent" />

Could anyone with more experience tell the possible reasons why the rewriting could not work? It would be very helpful...
