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 and truth be told, I never really worked with certs. I am building out a web-based app and it needs https to run. I need a wildcard certificate would work for 8 sites. We have a cert authority server on prem, but never used it before. Any links on how to accomplish this. It looks like, most of the certs here are self-signed. Thanks in advance P
SSL wildcard Certificate
I think i have tried everything with i have found to create a wildcard certificate for horizon for the past several days. and nothing has worked. i get errors like "This site can’t provide a secure connection localhost uses an unsupported protocol." or "err_ssl_version_or_cipher_mismatch" all which do not allow the interface to come up. i have even tried the following link, all which have not been fruitful https://robbieroberts.wordpress.com/2014/04/04/creating-a-wildcard-webserver-certificate-with-your-internal-microsoft-ca/ now i am creating the certificate Poweshell with the script below which works on Windows 10 but not Windows server 2012 R2 $date_now = Get-Date $extended_date = $date_now.AddYears(99) $cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate ` -Type Custom ` -certstorelocation cert:\localmachine\my ` -dnsname *.domain.local ` -KeyUsage DigitalSignature, KeyEncipherment ` -KeySpec KeyExchange -Subject "C=US, ST=IO, L=IOCity, CN=*.domain.local" ` -NotAfter $extended_date ` -KeyLength 4096 ` -FriendlyName vdm $pwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String '$password' -Force -AsPlainText $path = 'cert:\localMachine\my\' + $cert.thumbprint Export-PfxCertificate -cert $path -FilePath c:\temp\ssl\teltrium-local.pfx -Password $pwd the certificate is created and i added to the trusted site. the only difference between this an the one applied at setup is the Key Usage has a yellow exclamation point. https://communities.vmware.com/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2-2827169-302961/pastedImage_2.png Does anyone know what I am doing incorrectly. is there an "IDIOTS Guide" somewhere?
