Install SSL Certificate: Citrix Secure Gateway on Windows

Follow these instructions to install your GeoTrust SSL certificate for your Citrix Secure Gateway on Windows. If your Citrix Secure Gateway is running on a Windows box that does not have an IIS web server, you will need to generate the CSR and install the SSL certificate from another IIS-enabled box and then export/import the certificate keys into the Citrix Server box by following steps A and B here.

  1. Your SSL server certificate will be sent to you by email. The email message includes the web server certificate that you purchased in the body of the email message. Copy the certificate from the body of the email and paste it into a simple text editor, such as Notepad.

Test your SSL certificate by using a browser to connect to your server. Use the https protocol directive. For example, if your SSL was issued to secure.mysite.com, enter https://secure.mysite.com into your browser.

The gold padlock icon Gold Padlock Indicates Secure Browser Mode on your browser will be displayed in the locked position if your certificate is installed correctly and the server is properly configured for SSL.
