Correctly configure SSL on WSS 3.0 1

[BobSchleicher]

I have my sharepoint services server running perfectly.
Now I want to enable SSL. I made a certificate and installed it. When I go to

https://servername/

the page can't be displayed but if I go to

http://sp01/default.aspx

it works but some of the links inside reference http not https and they fail.

How can I change the website to use SSL for everything?

Did you go to the extended mapping and add

https://servername/?

You might have to fiddle with that. I had the same problem with my install as well.

Do you mean extend existing web application?

Alternate mappings or something to that effect. I don't recall exactly, my home server isn't on to look it up.

I chose Extend Existing Web Application and created a new website using port 443 and selected use SSL.

Then I installed my certificate on the new website and everything works.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
