SharePoint - MOSS and SSL
Asked By mphacke
11-Apr-07 11:50 AM
I have the following MOSS server configuration:
1. Primary site (Windows authentication) - access using www.mydomain.com
2. Extended site (uses forms authentications) - access using
extranet.mydomain.com
3. Mysite - access using mysite.mydomain.com
4. .NET applications (not MOSS related) - apps.mydomain.com
I know need to expose these 4 sites to the Internet and therefore wish to
secure the data being transfered with SSL.
I have had very little experience with SSL so I have a few questions:
1. Do we need multiple SSL certificates or can 1 certificate cover the 4
subdomains?
2. Do I just install the certificate into the IIS sites or do I also need
to make configuration changes in MOSS? Specific steps would be helpful.
3. Is there a way to force SSL connections for those who choose to access
from the Internet yet allow non-ssl connections for those who are connecting
from the LAN? (btw: server has 1 NIC and 1 Internal (LAN) IP address
currently; I am not sure if I could get the company to install a 2nd NIC or
assign another IP to this box).

Normally you would choose multiple certs and multiple nics to each unique
domain/subdomain name, but you can use whats called a wildcard certificate -
but they are usually very expensive!

You install to IIS, there are settings in central administration where you
may set a use SSL option.
Yes, if you use something like ISA Server - you should ideally architect to
extend your secured app(s) to a designated DMZ for intranet access and keep
the rest of your intranet secured
Enable IIS for Sharepoint Deployment Question SharePoint Hello group, I've installed Windows Server Search 8 and on a W2K3 R2 server. I came across the following to setup the server for IIS. When I launch IIS I don't see anything listed in under Internet Information Services in the console. What am I missing? How do I verify what version of IIS that I'm running. It does not appear in the Help > About page. Below are instructions I'm following for sharepoint 3.0 Configure the Server as a Web Server IIS is not enabled by default in Windows Server 2003.

MOSS 2007 and IIS on different servers? SharePoint Is it possible to have a CNAME point to a machine running IIS and have that IIS entry start a sharepoint site on a totally different sharepoint (with IIS) server? Or does the CNAME have to point to the primary Sharepoint Server?

So, ultimately, MOSS is really just a web site like any other. -Darrel You need know) As MOSS actually makes and alternate access mapping that works with the header in IIS. Perhaps you could fool it somehow with ISA Server. . . .

WSS 3.0 and IIS 7 SharePoint Hi all, I realize that WSS 3.0 (with SP1) is supported for Server 2008. However, it appears as if my client is going to need to run IIS 7 with the IIS 6 management compatibility service(s) installed (for Dynamics CRM 4.0). I cannot find any documentation that describes this situation. Is WSS 3.0 (SP1) on Server 2008 running IIS 7 in IIS 6 compatibility mode supported? Any insight is appreciated. Thanks!

Question about SPS V2, IIS, and Redirection SharePoint Hello, I have a server running SPS along side IIS and SQL. In IIS there are many sites listed underneath the root SharePoint site.
