need some guidance with SSL and certs
Hi all, Don't know if I am in the correct forum but my question is basically, can someone provide some links on how to install a new cert for https. The last guy here, never documented anything ...
rfalconerThanks for the info. Looked at certreq.exe and seems very straight foward. It is internal so I wil be using our internal CA. Just one question, I am creating the csr and would like to know where I place the multiple dns entires for the wildcard. Would it be in the extensions section?
TIA
Paul
If you use the .inf file to generate the CSR, then you can put the SAN entries in the extensions section. MS CAs uses the label DNS for SAN entries but I don't recall the exact syntax to use in the .inf file.
You may have to enable SAN entry support on the CA. It's been a long time since I built a CA and I don't remember if that's still necessary.
