lammy123 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) Hi All, Among other places I thought I'd ask this question here as you guys are helpful. Ive got a customer who is adamant to use IIS for hosting the web front end of our software this shouldn't usually be a problem however there is the small issue below. The server is called Server1 and is only ever accessed from 2 other machines in the same building but instead of just using the server name to access, the customer want to access it by the fully qualified domain name and apply their wildcard SSL certifcate to access the server via https://software.domain.co.uk. However when they browse to https://software.domain.co.uk it redirects to the local server name https://Server1 causing a certificate error. Is there some configuration in IIS to stop this happening? nb. IIS 7 Edited September 5, 2013 by lammy123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Nope. That's config / code of the web site redirecting to GetHostByName() or a manually specified hostname somewhere.If it's software off the shelf then it will be in the config files or the database config. If it's bespoke coded then the code is doing it.Good luck with IIS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
