Export Security Cert
|
|
|
| Hi all,
I have a Windows 2003 web server configured with a couple of production
websites and a couple of non production test web sites. My prod sites have
purchased security certificates. These have installed w/o problems.
I would like to export the same security certs and then import them to my
test sites. These are purely test sites and it won't matter if I get the
security warning that the names don't match. However, when I go to my
production website properties | directory security | server certificate, the
wizard does not give me an option to export the cert to a .pfx file (that
option is greyed out in the wizard). On other 2003 systems, I have been able
to do this export/import procedure for testing. Is this option specific to
the certificate vendor or am I doing something wrong.
Is there another option for exporting my purchased cert to use it for a test
site?
thanks for any advice.
JT

| When you view the cert, do you see 'You have the private key that
corresponds to this certificate'?
if yes, then try export using this steps. (applies to iis 6 as well)
