This great post over at iis.net by Thomas Deml that explains the new features of selfssl7 and has a link to download this tool:

Download selfSSL7

SelfSSL7 has the following features:

  • The site name SSL is to be configured on
  • The IP address
  • The port
  • Add as a trusted root certificate
  • Export to a pfx file
  • One or more configurable common name
  • Configurable expiration date
  • Configurable key size

You can see all the examples of use and features at Thomas Deml’s post ( http://blogs.iis.net/thomad/archive/2010/04/16/setting-up-ssl-made-easy.aspx)

What a great new tool.  We are excited to use this to secure our internal applications and use it for testing.  I hope the IIS team keeps up the great work and continues to push out tools like this.
