Multiple SSL Certificates on 1 IIS Website

Multiple SSL Certificates on 1 IIS Website

am 01.06.2006 21:53:36 von thdrought

A client of mine hosts their public corporate website on an IIS server.
On this server, we have an SSL cert installed.

They have a few domain aliases setup from past domains/company name and
they would like to have an SSL cert for each domain name.

For example, the corporate website will respond to:
www.mydomain.com
www.myolddomain.com

Is it possible to install multiple certs on the same iis website? I
told them that it is not. And, adding a wildcard cert would not resolve
their issue as the domains are different.

The olny thing I can think of is creating another website for the other
domain and creating a page witch redirects them to the newer domain
name.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

If you can add 1 IP address for each site, then yes. You would need to set
up one site in IIS per SSL required site, and point it's documents path to
the same location as all the others. You can then get an SSL cert for each
site, and they all share the same set of files.
