I cannot answer your question, that would best be presented to your host.   The way I have my linux servers configed is by port, and so my users simply use https:  and do not have to symb. link or copy files over to another directory.  
>>  No, that doesn't work.

 >>  1. The way my isp has it setup is
 >>  https://secure.domain.com/accountname/cgi-bin is supposed to call my cgi's
 >>  from my standard cgi-bin directory just in a secured mode.

 >>  2. And https://secure.domain.com/account/whatever.html is supposed to
 >>  display whatever.html from a special secure directory in which I am to
 >>  move
 >>  whatever.html into.  My question is how to configure ic accordingly? 
 >>  Also,
 >>  do I have to copy over html's from their standard location in order for
 >>  them
 >>  to feed to ic and be secure?
