| You need to know who the issuer is, as the instructions of generating the requests are different.If you have access to the server, to to IIS snap, right click the domain you want and click on directory security and under secure communication click on VIEW CERTIFICATE. This would show you who the issuer is. Then to generate the request, go the issuers website and follow the instructionsHope this helpsEhi |

| If you dont have access to the machine, you cant generate the certificate request.However you could always.1. Ask your hosting provider to do so for you2. add the "s" to https:// instead of http:// to your domain and double click the security icon, which is usually a padlock and the name of the issuing authority should be there and type of certificate it is:-) |
