      Dear All

       Is it possible to install and use one certificate on two Windows 2003 servers? and then use it to sign outgoing messages through Http adapter? If so how?

       Scenario: We want to load balance the sending side, since BizTalk load balances itself, we’ll just need to have both servers in same group, and the host instances present on both servers, but the problem is that destination server only supports messages signed with one certicate, so we’ll need to use either the same certificate on both ther servers or some other solution, any suggestions…..

       

      Regards

      This is normal behaviour.

      Just export the private key used for signing from machine A and install it under the same user account (or whatever process signs the messages) in the same certificate folder in Machine B.

       To access the cirtificate store…

      Start -> Run -> MMC

      Then add the certificates store.

      if it is only BizTalk load balance , ya .. extracting the certificate from one machine and using it in the another will do the job

      you only need to be sure to extract the private key with the certificate .

      but

      if you have windows load balance over your servers, I recommend to issue the certificate with issues to property value equal to the virtual name of the load balance.

      It will work even if you did not did that ! , but this is better especially if you are planning to receive HTTPS request on your Load balance  using the same certificate.
