Test ASP.NET site locally with SSL on IIS 5.1

Question

I need to test an ASP.NET site that requires SSL locally. I think IIS7 with the self-signing certs would do the trick, however, I am on XP.

Any idea how I could test the site locally over https?

Answer 1

The IIS Resource Kit will help you with this in XP. use the SelfSSL utility to create a self signed cert. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=56fc92ee-a71a-4c73-b628-ade629c89499&DisplayLang=en
