How can I implement ServiceStack.net rest call over HTTPS?

You will need to have an SSL Certificate purchased and installed to handle https (you should be able to get one from your domain name provider, which you will then need to install on your hosting server). The service clients will generally be allowed to connect by any method they choose. It will be your responsibility to stop the request and generate an error message to the client if they attempt to connect by http, instead of allowing them access You can validate whether they are on http or https by checking the Request.Url.

Scheme property in your REST Service API. Typically, a request for http on a service that requires https will return an HTTP 403 (forbidden) status code. If you have access to IIS, you can force HTTPS easily without doing any coding: sslshopper.com/iis7-redirect-http-to-htt....

Thanks for the info. I think I am going to need a little more info on implementing this specifically in servicestack.net. I will not have access to these settings in IIS through appharbor as far as I know.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
