They were correct. Since IIS can't see the header, your request is going to be sent directly to port 443, which is most likely listened to by the default or admin virtual domain.. \ However, this is possible. I have done this in the past using the undefined ports starting at 28000. If you set your SSL port to 28000 for that virtual domain, this should work. You just have to remember to code all your links to point to the correct port.
