Wildcard SSL installation help!

Jay_Gregory

I have a relatively new installation of ArcGIS for Server 10.1. My IT department has provided a wildcard SSL cert from digicert to use on the server. However, the instructions to install a CA-signed certificate on the server are different: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/Enabling_SSL_using_a_new_CA_signed_certificate/0154000005wr000000/

The instructs say I must generate a cert using the admin interface, then get our CA to sign it. Is that true? Can I not just install a wildcard SSL cert on the server?

Thanks all - I got it working. The wildcard cert worked by creating a cert from the admin utility specifying the actual hostname, then submitting that to our CA and creating a duplicate using our wildcard cert order.

Jay,

Are you using the webadaptor to expose your GIS services? If so, you should just be able to import your certificate at the web server level, enabling SSL there (if not already which i'm guessing it already is), then secure your GIS server with SSL using the self-signed certificate as shown in the links above.
