 * My hosting company updated my site with an SSL certificate, sites seems find.
   But when I check in Google Tools I see my 883 indexed pages under http are now
   only 43 under https
 * Google tells me to do a 301 redirect on all the old pages, but I don’t have them
   as the site is now only https.
 * I produced a new sitemap that has all the pages listed, but Google considers 
   them duplicates.
 * I’m confused, what can and should I do?
 * Regards

 * Investigation seems to point to a mod in the .htaccess file using mod_rewrite
   Does anybody have the correct code for changing http to https
