Abstract: Implementing
SSL for the Statit e-QC server
Product:
Statit
e-QC
Converting Statit e-QC to run on SSL protocol
is not difficult. It does require editing some
files and changing the registry. Please take
the appropriate backup measures.
The IIS server that on which Statit e-QC is
running needs to be SSL ready, which includes
a certificate installed on the machine. This
is accomplished through the IIS Statit e-QC
properties Directory Securities Tab, Secure
Communications. If the Edit button is not active,
you will need to get a Certificate.
In the form brought up by the Edit Button,
click Require Secure channel (SSL).
There are several changes that will need to
be made to use Statit e-QC with SSL. First,
change the following Statit e-QC properties
to use https:
Make these changes in the Edit Statit e-QC
Properties page in the Administration Category
of Statit e-QC.
Next, change these pages in the following locations:
|
|
|
| |
- Default.htm
- PortalDefault.asp
- CheckSession.inc
- Global.asa
|
|
|
|
| |
|
- Inetpub\wwwroot\eqc\admin
|
|
| |
|
All references to the Statit e-QC installation
using http:// in these files should be changed
to https://. Note that there are some links
to our home page or other resources on the internet
that should not be changed to https://.
Finally, the registry key “TopDir”
in “HKLM\Software\Statit Software, LLC\Statit
e-Server” will need to be changed to use
https.
Finish up with an iisreset. You can do this
from the Cmd window or by Right clicking on
the <machine name>(my computer) entry
in IIS Manager, All Tasks and Restart IIS.
