Change Host Headers for SharePoint Site
I'm running a SharePoint 2007 site on WinServer 2008 under SSL. I didn't set the host header when I created the site. Now I have to set the host headers for the site.
How do I do this in SharePoint and then how do I do this in IIS 7.0?
Thanks!

The site was running under SSL in IIS, so the Host Header could not be updated.
The real problem was that I didnt setup the Alternate Access Mapping correctly. Thanks Poolio. You saved my rear end big time!

you're welcome!
I worked with Sharepoint a bit on the past, best thing you can do is have a QA box (ms virtual server worked well on my laptop x32bit ) especially for changes like this. Remember that SSL doesn't use / work with host headers.
What I did for moss on windows 2003 was let sharepoint create the sites as SSL - setup just a default Alternate Access Mapping, then use IIS to redirect port 80 to the sharepoint 443.
