Question : How to get SSL working on extended 'Internet' SharePoint site

Hello everyone,

Im pretty new to WSS 3.0 and Im trying to get SSL working on my SharePoint site with no luck whatsoever.  We have a simple setup with one default SharePoint site (SharePoint- 80).  Im trying to extend that to an internet site named 'SP-Internet.net'.  So far Im able to get http://sp-Internet.net working, but not https://sp-internet.net

Here's my current setup:
1 server running WSS 3.0 and IIS 6.0
Server has 2 internal IP address
   -192.168.0.5      Company Website with 80/443
   -192.168.0.15      SharePoint  80 & sp-Internet.net
SSL cert from godaddy.com issued for SP-Internet.net installed to SP-internet.net site

I have tried just about every possible combination from setting SSL on the internal SharePoint site and not external, setting it on both, setting it on external only, setting it when I 'extend website application' from SharePoint Administrator, and messing around with host headers.  

Is there a trick that I'm missing?  What are the requirements to get https:// working ?  Anyone have any ideas on where to start or know of any good web pages with instructions?  I havent had much luck finding any so far, hence the post here.  

Thank you for taking the time to read.  Please let me know if you need me to elaborate anything.  

UPDATE:  Turns out I can't get SharePoint - 80 working unless it's set to 192.168.0.5 in IIS... I had it working before but now can't seem to get it back.  

Answer : How to get SSL working on extended 'Internet' SharePoint site

First thing you should do is go to Central Administration, and find Alternate Access Mappings (Operations, Global Configuration).

That will let you specify different URL's you'd use to access your intranet portal (port 80 as to what you've mentioned).

First, make sure you have DNS configured properly, and being used by your client machines.

After that, for SSL, what you need to do is "extend" your existing "web application" to use another port also. Click on "Create or extend web application" under Application Management, SharePoint Web Application Management.

Basically, you are creating a new IIS website/virtual directory to host the existing content via port 443 (specify use SSL, specify port 443).  It will not have a separate content database, but just link to your existing site.

This way, you can use the intranet site still (not SSL), and also have the SSL version.
