How to install an SSL Cerificate on Server 2008R2 Terminal Server
I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 running RDS/Terminal server and it is functioning fine
- The server is configured as a stand-alone workgroup server and not in a domain
- We setup and configured RDS for 3 external users to only access a database application running on the server. That’s now working fine
- Up till recently, users were typing in the public IP address linked to the server. We don’t want users to use the IP address
- I created a new cname/alias sub domain called remotegf.domainname.com at the registrar (without giving you the exact domain and of the client)
- I ordered and validated an SSL Certificate pointed to remotegf.domainname.com
- After the validation, NS sent me the .CRT file to import. I placed the file on the server and just clicked on it and it successfully imported the certificate. It said it was successful. In the interim, we had to create a new free certificate on the server which allowed the external users to connect
- However, when I checked the server, I don’t see the certificate
Am I doing something wrong?
All I want to do is replace the free built-in created certificate for the newly purchased SSL certificate
The server creates a .cer extension
the purchased certificate is a .crt extension
Any help would be appreciated
