Topic: force primary domain name to use SSL
I wish to force my primary Domain name to use an ssl connection.1. If I redirect with Port forward from 80 to 443 it uses my current Dynamic IP address instead of my current main domain name so my SSL cert which uses my domain name doesn't match the destination which is the IP address an dI get a verification error.2. If I try url forward to https://my.domain.name:443 it won't allow it saying domain name and the redirect url are the same.So is there a method that will alias http://my.domain to https://my.domain:443 ?

I would suggest using web server settings to redirect http to https. I know IIS allows you to do so: HTTP to HTTPS redirects on IIS 7.x and higher. What web server are you using?

This seems to be an accepted lighttpd.conf entry for forwarding http to https.This still doesn't work I can directly enter http://my.domainname.net:443 and reach my destination but I can't force a port redirect from my.domaniname.net to my.domainname.net:443 only my.domainname.net:80 => my.ip.addr.ess:443.

If you use Dynu port forwarding, your domain my.domainname.net will be pointing to the IP address of Dynu port forwarding server. So if you try to go to my.domainname.net:80, it is not going to your web server, instead, it is going to Dynu port forwarding server. I suggest that you disable port forwarding and try.

Yeah there such a think indeed to enforce that, simple 'redirection' in the default vhost config entry would do that.
Redirect permanent / https://url.of you.website.on.ssl/Remark the / in the line is not a mistake, it signifies the get request base (ex GET /)
