Hi,

How would I detect if a server is running securely (https) or not?

Try

If Request.Url.Scheme.Equals("https") Then
' Is secure...
End If

A better approach would be to restrict the access to the application by
IIS, which allows to force the use of SSL. In this case you won't have
to check programmatically.

That's only half the truth. You need to check for the value "on" as
well. But this is really just an awkward way of saying

Request.IsSecureConnection
