Using Wildcard SSL Certificates on IIS 7.5 – The Easy Way

Difficulty level not set for this Post

So something that has been irritating me is how difficult it is to setup multiple SSL websites using a wildcard cert, IIS and one IP address. If you’ve been trying to get this working, I’m going to assume you’re already familiar with a wildcard certificate(UCC, SAN, ETC).

Check out this tutorial and your life will be simplified 10 fold.
