Renewing certificate on RDS Server

[Sheridan]

I recently renewed our domain wildcard SSL certificate (not self signed) and imported it onto our RDS 2019 server - and added it in using the server manager in the deployment properties certificates section - for all 4 services

 

Weird thing is, when accessing the RD Web page externally it still shows the old certificate - which is still valid for a week or so, but thats not even on the RDS server anymore as I deleted it!

 

Have I missed something, as this is the only place I installed the original certificate, and its port forwarded through our firewall as well?

Have you tried clearing the cache on your browser for SSL certs?

 

I often get the same issue, and find that going to inprivate etc shows the new one, but the old one caches for a while

 

Or do you mean the HTML5 one as that's a different command to set SSL

Yes - you're right the new one appears in incognito mode, so it must be cached locally - although I'm almost 100% sure I tried a machine I'd never used on RDS before!

 

I guess the 'old' certificate is still valid for a little while so the new one will be ignored by the clients

Yeah I've never worked out why it does it, as you said even if you've deleted the SSL cert from the server it still seems happy with it somehow, but hey Never seems to cause a problem so guessing it self-heals somehow!

Sounds like you need to update the bindings in your IIS manager
