ASP.Net, SourceSafe and HTTPS

[Ashutosh Bhalerao]

Hi,

I began writing an ASP.Net project[VS.Net 2003] where I was
communicating with IIS over http. I got a basic framework working and
then I uploaded the project into SourceSafe.

When I went to another machine and did a open project from Source
Control it prompted me for the location of my localhost and
subsequently all files went there.

The requirement changed and I had to incorporate HTTPS. I did all the
certificate addition stuff and got https working and checked my files
into Sourcesafe. Today when I did a get latest version from Source
Safe I got an access denied (403) error and the project would not load
at all.

I have a feeling that Source Safe cannot access the directory over
https since it does not have to facility to do so. Can anyone direct
me as to how I can get around this problem? I am kind of surprised to
think that Source Safe could be limited by the permissions on my IIS
server.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Rgds,
Ashu
