IBM HTTP Server with Domino Plug-in and SSL

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Hi all

Is anyone using IBM HTTP Server with Domino redirecting both HTTP and HTTPS?

We have no problems using the plugin with HTTP but are experiencing problems with HTTPS

We have Domino and IBM HTTP on the same machine, as we are using the rewrite rules that IBM HTTP server can give us (for example, ensuring the URL is the correct FQDN of the server for single sign on to work) and so I guess we need to share the same SSL certificate - but its causing some headaches gettin it all working together. If anyone does have this working I’d really like to hear from them

Cheers

Hi Anthony,

I may be able to help if you still need help that is.

You could use 302 redirects for http and https using the httpd.conf and meta-refresh in an index.html for each virtual site.

Anthony,There are three things that must agree:

  1. The certificate domain for SSL (found in the CN of the certificate)

  2. FQDN of the Web Server must match the domain of the web request

  3. Any authentication mechanism must have the same domain as defined above. Generally this involves the Web SSO configuration, but may also include the LDAP domain (if you are using that).

Many thanks Rolf

I’ve been trying this and having some IBM HTTP Specific problems with it saying that the password is invalid. Hopefully once that is fixed I’m sure it will be fine

Many thanks
