Secure connection (asp with SQLserver)

Mar 21, 2005 1 Replies

I have an application which uses ASP pages to interface with a SQL Server Database



How do I set up a secure connection as in "you are about to view web pages over a secure connection" in order to pass confidential information



thanks in advance earnie


Assuming you are referring to a ASP.NET web application. To activate the SSL you will need a certificate issued by Thawte/Verisign etc.. and install the certificate to the domain it has been issued to. Most web designs place the secure files in a special directory in the application to easily identify the files and to enable the folder to be moved to a different server (if the secure server is located on a different machine).

You may have better luck posting to a different newsgroup for more detailed info.
