VeriSign is the leading Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Certificate
Authority enabling secure e-commerce, communications, and
interactions for Web sites, intranets, and extranets. VeriSign®
digital certificates protect over 900,000 Web servers
worldwide, so consumers can shop safely.


Follow the guidelines to install VeriSign SSL certificate on
Microsoft IIS 6.0. In case of any failure in installation, it is
recommended to contact Microsoft.


Download the certificate
                            AGENDA
Method 1:
You will receive the SSL Certificate via email from VeriSign.
Copy and paste the contents of the certificate into a plain text
editor such as Notepad.


The text file should be in the following format:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
[Encoded data]
-----END CERTIFICATE-----


Method 2:
Download the certificate from VeriSign Trust Center: SO8061


Reminder:
If you download the certificate from VeriSign Trust Center
account or install it from the email received, then save it with
.txt or p7b extension.


If you install the certificate, downloaded from VeriSign Trust
Center account in x.509 format, then save it with the extension
.txt or .cer
Step 1: Installing SSL Certificate into IIS 6.0


  Open the Internet Services Manager (IIS):
  Click Start
  Select All Programs > Administrative Tools
  Choose Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
  Under Web Sites, right-click your web site and select
   Properties > Directory Security tab.
  Under Secure Communications, click Server Certificate
  The Web Site Certificate Wizard will open, click Next
  Choose Process the Pending Request and Install the
   Certificate, then click Next
  The pending request must match the response file. If you
   deleted the pending request in error you must generate a
   new CSR and replace this certificate.
  Select the location of the certificate res ponse file, and then
   click Next
  Be sure to assign your site an SSL port (443 by default).


Step 2: Locate and Disable the VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary
Certification Authority - G5 Root CA certificate


   Create a Certificate Snap-In in Microsoft Management
    Console (MMC). Please see the following solution for
    information on this: SO6127


   With the MMC and the Certificates snap-in open, expand
    the Trusted Root Certification Authorities folder on the left
    and select the Certificates sub -folder.
 Locate the following certificate:
   Issued to: VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority -
     G5
   Issued by: VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority
     - G5
   Expiration Date: 7/16/2036
   Serial Number: 18 da d1 9e 26 7d e8 bb 4a 21 58 cd cc 6b 3b 4a
   If this certificate is present, it must be disabled.
   Right click the certificate
   Select Properties
   In the Certificate purposes section, select Disable all purposes for
     this certificate
   Click the OK button
   Close the MMC - there is no need to save console settings


Step 3: Verify certificate installation


Stop and start your Web server prior to any testing. In some cases the
changes may not take place after restarting IIS Services and a re-boot
is needed.
