google "asp.net redirect to https". Depending on if it is webforms or mvc depends how you implement this but you need to detect if the request is http and then issue a redirect to the same page but on https.

You should be looking to upgrade or replace your server ASAP. You have slightly over a month until Windows Server 2003 support ends completely:

After July 14, Microsoft will no longer issue security updates for any version of Windows Server 2003.

You can turn on a setting in IIS that says "Require SSL" or something like that.

I have not seen any option available on IIS 6.0 to redirect on HTTPS.

No, not redirect. Require ssl. It means if someone types in http only they will get a message in their browser that the site requires ssl. So, they'll have to type in https.

I have achieve this by adding a simple code on Global.asax

C#

protected void Application_BeginRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (HttpContext.Current.Request.IsSecureConnection.Equals(false) && HttpContext.Current.Request.IsLocal.Equals(false))
        {
            Response.Redirect("https://" + Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_HOST"]);
        }
    }
