Author SSL in a development environment
Ed Staffin

Hi,
I am doing development on a win2003 standard server with IIS installed. I
also installed certificate server and was able to figure out how to create a
certificate. I think I got it installed correctly on my default web site.
However, when I browse to my app via https://localhost/myapp/default.aspx it
can't find the page. I can however run the app without ssl via
http://localhost/myapp/default.aspx, which is exactly what I don't want. Can
anyone give me some guidance?
Thanks ... Ed

Easy method? Stop answering on port 80 for the site. But basically,
on the web site properties, directory security tab, secure
communication, Edit, choose "Require SSL..."
