In IIS you can apply SSL certs to each "web" site under the IIS Server. You can 
set SSL to be required or to not be required so both http and https work.

Common practice:

The root site is  www.mysite.com. You go to this page and get a login box, You 
login and then you get defaulted to another site(in your code and on the same 
IIS box) that has SSL required. For example "secured.mysite.com"  All content 
that is to be secured by SSL would lie under this site.

In IIS there are two websites.  www.mysite.com and secured.mysite.com.  SSL is 
activated on "secured.mysite.com"

Hope this helps.

There is a way to do what you want either way.  I don't really know the
details, but my hosting site offers either individual certificates, or a
cheaper method where multiple sites share one cert.  

 

I seem to remember that for the share to work, the FQN was the hosting sites
name, and those that bought into the share had to use a folder under the
share.  (i.e. I can buy https://www.myname.com <https://www.myname.com/>
and they host it, or for less money I can get
https://hostsitename.net/myname).  Sorry I don't know the details beyond
that.

Subject: [THIN] FW: SSL Certificate question

 

 

OK guys,

 

This may seem like a dumb question but I honsetly dont know the answer to
this.

 

A Client of mine has a web server which is serving multiple intranet sites.
running on IIS.

 

He wants some sites secured by SSL and others not (all of the sites on the
same machine).

 

I thought that an SSL cert was bound to a machine for a specific FQN. So if
thats the case will he need to purchase multiple SSL certificates?

 

Any clarification would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,
Tony.
