Hi all,

We are trying to get SSL going on one of the websites on a 2003 server. We
generated the certificate and it shows up as an option when selecting Sever
Certificate under the Security tab on the properties. Everything seems to be
fine until we try to connect to the website via https. We are getting the
error message that the server is not available.

Short history: We first installed Certificate Services in the test lab when
the box didn't belong to a domain. SSL was working fine. Then we uninstalled
Certificate Services, joint the server to the domain as a member and
reinstalled the Certificate Services. The new certificat looks fine, showing
the right name (server.xyz.com), but SSL fails.

Can anybody direct us to the right documentation to fix this?

Thanks,
Claus
