Remove existing demo app pools and sites

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd delete site "Demo 1"
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd delete site "Demo 2"
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd delete AppPool "Demo 1 App Pool"
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd delete AppPool "Demo 2 Portal App Pool"

Establish SSL Environment

Tell windows that Network Service is allowed access to your wildcard cert. and tell it to bind the cert to port 443 on your IP address

PathToWinHTTPCertCfg\winhttpcertcfg -g -i "wildcard.domain.com.pfx" -c LOCAL_MACHINE\My -a “Network Service” -p MySecretPassword

Then execute the following

netsh http add sslcert ipport=<YOURLOCALIPADDRESS>:443 certhash=<CERTIFICATE THUMBPRINT> appid=<A GUID IN THE FORM OF {ab3c58f7-8316-42e3-bc6e-771d4ce4b201}>

Create App Pools and Sites

This is the code to create app pools and sites

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd add site -id:100 -name:"Demo 1" -bindings:http/*:80:YOURLOCALIPADDRESS -physicalPath:<PathToDemo1Source> -logfile.directory:<PathToPutLogFilesIn> -traceFailedRequestsLogging.directory:<PathToPutTraceFiles>

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd set app "Demo 1/" -applicationPool:"Demo 1 App Pool"

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd set site /site.name:"Demo 1" /+bindings.[protocol='https',bindingInformation='*:443:demo1.domain.com']

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd add site -id:200 -name:"Demo 2" -bindings:http/*:80:YOURLOCALIPADDRESS -physicalPath:<PathToDemo2Source> -logfile.directory:<PathToPutLogFilesIn> -traceFailedRequestsLogging.directory:<PathToPutTraceFiles>

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd set app "Demo 2/" -applicationPool:"Demo 2 App Pool"

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\Appcmd set site /site.name:"Demo 2" /+bindings.[protocol='https',bindingInformation='*:443:demo2.domain.com']

...and that should be you ;) Enjoy!

Facebook will momentarily add yet another feather to their bow by becoming the biggest example of a social network accepting OpenID from other companies.

It is maybe now, more than ever we should expect websites to care more about verifying the age and identity of their customers – now that one of the largest in the market has widely accepted a technology that makes asserting verified claims SO easy.

So today see’s the end of my week long attempt to use an online bookstore search in replacement of my habitual use of Gooooogle.

All in all it was a relative success. We were certainly able to find the topics we were looking for – but as expected, Safari was able to best answer questions on ‘best practise’ and ‘how should be approach x’. Where Google steps forward was exposing the real world experiences actually implementing those practises, thanks to the world of Blogging and Forums.

Has to be said I found the interface to be simple. I don’t think I would ever be able to sit and read a whole chapter let alone a book. I wasn’t able to achieve the ‘flow’ otherwise experienced by reading a book or web page. Having to set the page Zoom each time became rather irritating after a while but I was able to find the information I required – answer the question – and move on.

I would LOVE to be able to flip pages using my cursors, rather than my mouse. I would love to see all the pages of a book laid out on a ‘whitebox’ table in some kind of deep-zoom visualisation so I can see all the headings, sub heading, illustrations, to mimic what you would do by the ‘flicking’ through a book.

So, will a Safari subscription kill my GoogleAmazon addiction. No, not yet. Besides, I can’t take Safari to the ‘john’.

This curiosity was satisfied thanks to my friends at GeekWithBlogs.net and Safari Books Online. Thanks very much guys!

Signing up to OpenSocialthis afternoon I found that their registration page shows a woman being a bit more sociable than I was expecting. Not sure how this constitutes toward ‘Moving the social web forward’ – but she certainly is.
