Anybody care to give the blow-by-blow of what would be required to
a) etablish a certificate for a master domain on a VPS server (so visitors don’t get the “certificate belongs to PLESK” message on SSL pages), and
b) establish a full SSL certificate for any given domain on a VPS server (i.e. not using the master domain with shared SSL via virtual folders, but with a fully valid certificate for the hosted domain itself)
Thx
Plesk 8.1 for Windows Administrator’s Guide (revision 1.3)
Check that link then go to:
Configuring and Maintaining Your Server
Sub section:
Configuring Shared SSL and Master SSL Domain
Thx, Stephen. Will do. Does this mean we’re moving to 8.1 on the Windows VPSs sometime in the near future?
Yes if you are talking about Plesk 8.1 we have already started providing it to clients on VPS.
looking to buy a certificate from certs.ipsca.com, which Yash recommended a while back on another thread. They’re asking me to specify what kind of server i’m on, but PLESK is not an option – for hsphere Stephen had recommended picking Apache, even for IIS/Windows installs.
Can someone suggest what I should pick for a WinVPS server?
Options are: Apache-MOD SSL Apache-Raven Apache-SSLeay C2Net-Stronghold Cisco Cobal Raq2 Cobal Raq3 Cobal Raq4 IBM HTTP iPlanet Server 4.1 Lotus Domino 4.6+ Lotus Domino Go 4.6.2.51 Lotus Domino Go 4.6.2.6+ Microsoft IIS 4.X Microsoft IIS 5.X Microsoft IIS 6.X Netscape Enterprise/FastTrack Novel IChain Oracle Other WebStar 4 Zeus V3+
If you are on Windows VPS server the webserver will be Microsoft IIS 6.X
and for the Linux VPS it will be what ever you have installed
When I said pick apache no matter what is installed, it was for hsphere based installs, just to clarify for other users that may read this
