How to Encrypt the communication between SQL Server and the Webserver??
My Application uses SQL Server authentication to connect to MSSQL.
Please let me know!

Best way would be using IPSec to encrypt the traffic between the nodes

i'm very eak on this, never implemented it, but i thought there was a "Force Encyption" property on the server that could do that; otherwise it's an optional client connection option, right?

The force encryption option is used when using SSL encryption. This is slow and requires you go spend a whole fist full of dollars on an SSL certificate (self signed are not recommended) from a trusted authority.
IPSec is part of the windows OS and requires no SQL Server interraction, the encryption levels are more secure and offer better performance.
This link[/u] provides an overview of IPSec
