But wouldn't I need to open port 444 to get to the site? So the user
will get the web interface?
Thanks
Brian

That's not correct. Passwords are encrypted... The client makes it WI
request to the CSG server over SSL (The 1 IP and 1 SSL I mentioned).
CSG will then proxy the request to the WI Server. The client NEVER
connects to port 80, only CSG. It's been like this since CSG 2.0.
Remember, only port 443 is exposed... Port 80 is blocked off from the
internet.

You can not log into the web interface using https if they are on one
box.
I have set several up in the past like that but the client does not want
passwords sent over port 80 in clear text.

Why? You only need 1 public IP address and 1 SSL certificate. The CSG
service will proxy WI traffic for you.
Both can reside on the same server... CSG runs on 443 and WI on 80 so
there is no conflict.

Subject: [THIN] CSG and Web Interface on 1 box
Hello
I have a client with 25 users currently
They are looking to upgrade the hardware that runs their CSG and Web
interface currently on 2 servers.
They would like to consolidate if possible to one box securely.
Can this be done by hosting 2 Ip addresses on the same server?
I know in the past you have had to change the SSL port on IIS to
something like 444 to make it work.
I was thinking 1 ip for CSG using an SSL cert and 1 ip for Web
interface using a different SSL cert.
Thanks
Brian
