Q: 

Configure Drupal to force login for specific hostname (www. vs manage.) or protocol (HTTP vs HTTPS)

I have a Drupal site that is available at two different hostnames, one of which is only served using SSL. For example, http:// www.example.com is for viewing content and https:// manage.example.com is used by content contributors.

I would like to configure Drupal to not show content through the https:// manage.example.com address unless the user has permissions (and is authenticated).

Does Drupal have the ability to set permissions so that a user must login when accessing a site through one hostname but not the other? Or is there a module which can provide this feature?

A: 

You can also use .htaccess to restrict it

I was looking to use Drupal's authentication system to leverage existing account usernames and passwords and so that users would not need to authenticate twice.
