AnswerSSL Cert Problem

    Running Server 2008 with IIS7...
    I'm having an issue tring to access my site via SSL.

    I installed the certificate and added the bindings to the site but whenever I access the site, it still uses the WMSvc-NAME cert.
    I've double checked that the cert is set correctly in the bindings...even looked at the metabase to check the cert hash, its all correct.

    Tried a few restarts, it still uses the WMSvc cert.

    Any suggestions?

    This may be trivial but have you cleared your browser cache and/or restarted IIS?

    Yup, tried all that....
    Actually, just playing around with it this morning, I figured out that it only occurs if the site is called by hostname on the same box.

    So if I'm on the server and call up the site via hostname it returns the WMSvc cert.
    Outside or on another machine in the network, it works fine.

    Why does that happen?
