Hi all
is there a problem with implementing ssl
on a win2k professional machine?
I have read in a msdn 'how to' (regarding Building Secure ASP.NET
Applications)
that a win2k server family is a must.
TIA
Rea

SSL must be installed on a server O/S, not Win2K Pro.

What? You can install an SSL certificate into Win XP Pro (I have one
installed on my laptop). I'm pretty sure you can install one on a Windows
2000 Pro box as well.

You can't run MS Certificate Services on a desktop OS though.

Cheers
Ken
