SSL enabling Exchnage 2003 on a Windows 2003 Server Enterprise

[Patrick]

I am trying to SSL enable our exchange 2003 server for OWA.

I am following the steps desribed in
http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/SSL_Enabling_OWA_2003.html.
However, I can not get the Pending request accepted by the Certifcate
Authorty (meaning when I do http://localhost/certsrv on the server itself, I
get the error message "The page must be viewed over a secure channel". {And
I can not do a https://.... until this certificate is installed}.

I am running both CA and Exchange 2003 on the same box, which is Windows
2003 Entrerpise, patched.

What am I missing?

Cheers

Hello patrick,

Did you also try with the servername or ip instead of localhost?

Hi Meinolf,

I've sorted it out. It was due to the fact I haven't had SSL communcation
disabled on the certsrv virtual floder.

Thank you for your help.
