Powershell IIS7 Snap in Assign SSL certificate to https binding

As part of our automated build procedure we are trashing and reconstructing our IIS site with powershe开发者_运维知识库ll scripts.

Once i have created the AppPool and the website complete with binding information I want to set the SSL certificate for the https binding. I can't find any concrete examples onl;ine anywhere that demonstrate this.

Any ideas?

Looking for a benevolent powershell god...

You can merge previous examples with creation of an https binding in a web site.

import-module webadministration
$computerName = $Env:Computername
$domainName = $Env:UserDnsDomain
New-WebBinding -Name "MyWebSite" -IP "*" -Port 443 -Protocol https
Get-ChildItem cert:\LocalMachine\My | where { $_.Subject -match "CN\=$Computername\.$DomainName" } | select -First 1 | New-Item IIS:\SslBindings\0.0.0.0!443

Here is how to do it simply:

First identify thecertificate that you want to assign and obtain it's thumbprint

e.g. Your certificate might be in cert:\LocalMachine\Root

You can obtain the thumbprint with the following:

$thumb = (Get-ChildItem cert:\LocalMachine\Root | where-object { $_.Subject -like "YOUR STRING HERE*" } | Select-Object -First 1).Thumbprint

<<< Now one can assign the certificate to an ip address and port comme ci >>>

$IPAddress = 101.100.1.90

$port = 443

Push-Location IIS:\SslBindings

Get-Item cert:\LocalMachine\Root\$thumb | New-Item $IPAddress!$port

Pop-Location

Hope this is of help to anyone

You can make the script simpler like this:

Get-ChildItem cert:\LocalMachine\Root | where { $_.Subject -like "YOUR STRING HERE*" } | select -First 1 | New-Item IIS:\SslBindings\0.0.0.0!443

Use 0.0.0.0 to target all hosted IP's (equivalent to "*" in IIS Manager) or replace it with a specific IP if needed.

I've found an example here on how one can assign the certificate.

However, it doesn't seem very elegant having to hard code the certificate thumbprint ... so if any one knows of a better method, I'd be glad to hear.
