[FW-1] Port redirection for IIS server behind firewall

I have an IIS server sitting behind my firewall, and I
installed a certificate and enabled SSL and have the
default web server listening on 443.  The server answers
with https requests, but what I want to do is redirect
all http requests to 443 to force encryption.  I asked
our IIS administrator and he started talking about
redirections by adding lines to the default.html, but
it seems that this should be relatively easy in the
FW. It seems overly complicated, and a potential security
hole to allow connection to 80 then redirect from within
IIS.  How is everyone doing this is the field, and can
anyone point me to any good whitepapers and best practices
on this?

Thanks,

Hal
