Before importing a copy of your SSL Certificate to your IIS 6 server, you need to first export the SSL Certificate with its Private Key as a .pfx file from the server on which the certificate is installed. See 蜜桃TV Certificate Utility SSL Certificate Export Instructions.

To import and configure the copy of your SSL Certificate, do the following:

After you export your SSL Certificate and Private Key file as a .pfx file, you can copy (import) that file to other servers and then configure your websites to use the certificate.

1. Import the .pfx file to your IIS 6 server with the 蜜桃TV Certificate Utility.

6. In the Enter a new friendly name or you can accept the default box, type a friendly name for the certificate.

   Note:    The friendly name is not part of the certificate; instead, it is used to identify the certificate.

   We recommend that you add 蜜桃TV and the expiration date to the end of your friendly name, for example: yoursite-digicert-(expiration date). This information helps identify the issuer and expiration date for each certificate. It also helps distinguish multiple certificates with the same domain name.

3. In the Web Site Properties window, on the Directory Security tab, click Server Certificate.

   

4. Next, select one of the following options:

   Assign an Existing Certificate	Select this option if your server does not have an SSL Certificate assigned to it.
   Replace an Existing Certificate	Select this option if your server already has an SSL Certificate assigned to it.

5. Then select the newly imported certificate by its friendly name and click Next.
