I'm trying to configurate SSL between WebSphere Application Server
6.1.0.9 running con Windows 2003 Server and IIS 6.0 as a web server,
both running in the same machine.

I can access to my application without SSL using the web server, but
using SSL, I only can access directly with the application server.

The port 443 is enabled in IIS, I have problems about the steps to
enable SSL, and import/export certificates from WebSphere and IIS.

I created a certificated request on IIS 6, and I signed the certificate
with a test CA using openSSL, and installed it on IIS. It works for
static content, but I can't install the certificate on WebSphere.

I tried to create a self-signed certificate on WebSphere, but I don't
know how to configurate this certificate in the plugin-cfg.xml.


I found this document, but is too many complex for me
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/techjournal/0612_birk/0612_birk.html


Any step to start my configuration?.


Regards,
Dani

Hi Dani, may I ask why you are doing this if WAS, and IIS are on the same server? Is the server in the DMZ?

Hi,

WebSphere and IIS are installed in the same machine, and this machine is
connected to the local networks without restrictions, is a machine for
test proposes only.


Thanks by your reply,

I didn't spell it out, but I would try this process with ikeyman on the WAS side.

I followed this link, but when I try to import the certificate with
iKeyMan, prompt the password and later shows a error message about
"invalid certificate"


Thanks by your reply,

Hello,

I finally configured the SSL connection with IIS 6.0 and IHS 6.1 using
these comments
