When I configure a test environment, that are using https, I need a certificate. To create a self-signed certificates, you must do a few things to get it to work on a host header.

ReplyDeleteYou really should not use Self-Signed Certificates. Instead use a Local Certificate Authority (CA), they are domain trusted and will work outside your single box :-) Adding the certificate can be done easiest with PowerShell using New-WebBinding: New-WebBinding -Name "SharePoint Central Administration v4" -HostHeader "spca.contoso.com"-Protocol "https" -Port 443 -SslFlags 0 | Out-Null
ReplyDeleteGet-Item Cert:\LocalMachine\My\$ThumbPrint | New-Item 0.0.0.0!443 | Out-Null
Where $ThumbPrint is fetched using the PSDrive for certs:
Get-ChildItem Cert:\LocalMachine\My
Note sure why profile was called TGITM :-)
