Q: How do I install self-signed SSL certificates on two IIS 6 websites on the same server where both sites use port 443 and are configured with host headers?

A: Multiple SSL sites on a single IIS server using host headers. <- the answer.

Basically, use SelfSSL or SSLDiag to create a cert with CN=*.example.com, then just point the second site to that cert in the Directory Security tab. Also, configure secure server bindings using adsutil (found in c:\inetpub\adminscripts).

Q: How do I install self-signed SSL certificates on two IIS 6 websites on the same server?

A: SelfSSL.exe is bugged. Install SSLDiag and use its embedded SelfSSL tool.

The problem with two certs, two sites on the same server is strange. You install a cert on website A and it works great. You install another cert on B and B works great while A breaks. And etc.
