    SSL Limitation

    Kernel mode SSL is enabled by default. Wonder if it still has the same limitation below as IIS 6.0

    Client certificates
    RC2 ciphers
    The PCT 1.0 protocol
    Server certificate configuration changes require a restart of the HTTP service
    Bulk encryption and offload support

    If yes, how would I disable kernel mode SSL?

    Thanks.

    Kernel mode SSL in IIS7 does not have any of those limitations and it is the only SSL implementation available.

    Kernel mode SSL is controlled by the EnableKernelSSL registry value and is enabled by setting the value to 1. Enabling kernel mode SSL will disable user mode SSL and requires the HTTP service to be restarted to take effect. The EnableKernelSSL registry key is located at:

     

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\
         HTTP\Parameters\EnableKernelSSL

    That does not apply to IIS7
