256-bit SSL Digital Web Certificates

Installing your Certificate on Microsoft IIS 4.x

Step 1. Install the Server file certificate using Key Manager

Go to Key Manager.

Install the new Server certificate by clicking on the key in the www directory (usually a broken key icon with a line through it), and select "Install Key Certificate".

Enter the Password.

When you are prompted for bindings, add the IP and Port Number. "Any assigned" is acceptable if you do not have any other certificates installed on the web server.
Note: Multiple certificates installed on the same web server will require a separate IP Address for each because SSL does not support host headers.

Go to the Computers menu and select the option "Commit Changes", or close Key Manager and select "Yes" when prompted to commit changes.

The new Server certificate is now successfully installed.

Back up the Key in Key Manager by clicking on Key menu> Export -> Backup File. Store the backup file on the hard drive AND off the server.

Reboot server on completion.

Step 2: Intstalling the Root & Intermediate Certificates (Only required if you have recieved the 3 files):

Your Certificate will have been emailed to you. The email will also contain two other Certificates: AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt and UTNAddTrustServerCA.crt - save these Certificates to the desktop of the webserver machine.

It is essential that you have installed these two Certificates on the machine running IIS4. You may also download them below:

> AddTrustExternalCARoot
> UTNAddTrustServerCA

Once you have installed the Certificates, restart the machine running IIS4. You must now complete one of the following procedures - the procedure you follow is dependent on the Service Pack that has been implemented on your machine running IIS4.

ServicePack 3:
Install the above certificates in your Internet Explorer by opening each certificate and clicking "Install Certificate". You may then use this IISCA batch file to transfer all root certificates from your Internet Explorer to the IIS (see Microsoft KnowledgeBase Q216339).

ServicePack 4:
Install the above certificates manually in a specicfic root store (you may also want to read (see Microsoft KnowledgeBase Q194788):

Install the AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt certificate by double clicking on the corresponding file this will start an installation wizard
select Place all certificates in the following store and click browse
select Show physical stores
select Trusted Root Certification Authorities
select Local Computer, click OK
back in the wizard, click Next, click Finish

Repeat the same for the UTNAddTrustServerCA.crt, however choose to place the certificates in the Intermediate Certification Authorities store.

ServicePack 5:
Same as SP4.

ServicePack 6:
Same as SP5.

Reboot the web server to complete the installation.
