I have a web site www.siteA.com that is not a secure site. My router is configured to forward all traffic for port 80 to my internal server A. I have another internal server B that is hosting web services and I would like to make this site secure with a certificate. I configured my router to forward request to https://www.siteA.com:8191 to serverb:443 when i try to connect I get the error the security certificate presented by this website was issued for another web address. I have created certificates for www.siteA.com, serverB.siteA.com, www.siteA.com:8191 and none work. What name should the certificate be for if that is the problem? I am using IIS6, forwarding port 8191 to port 80 of the server works if I don't use a secure connection.
