I have read several articles on rcp over https and it look as though I'm not the only one having diffculty and I have reached a point where my lack of technical knowledge can't bridge the gap between these articles and this project.<br />
<br />
I have followed the instructions prescribed these articles and I can't seem to get the url <a href="https://" rel="ugc nofollow">https://</a>&lt;servername&gt;/rpc to ask for credentials - not even while performed at the server.<br />
<a href="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=833401" rel="ugc">http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=833401</a>&nbsp;<br />
<a href="http://www.amset.info/exchange/rpc-http.asp" rel="ugc">http://www.amset.info/exchange/rpc-http.asp</a><br />
<br />
I can't help but to think that it has something to do with the CA or Server Certificates - I haven't found any how-to's that show you how to configure these components specifically for rcp over https, not to mention, this is my first experience using Certificates.<br />
<br />
My System<br />
Single server install with Server 2003 Enterprise and Exchange 2003 and it's the only server in the domain.<br />
<br />
Any help will be greatly appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

RCP over HTTPS problems

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
