I am working the lab for AD FS titled "Web Sites and Identity". The lab setup installs IIS7 and sets up a secure site for you.
When I browse to my localhost in SSL, I get "Connection was reset" in Firefox and the totally unhelpful "Internet Expolrer cannot display the web page" in IE8. HTTP works fine.
I am going to set up fiddler and see what is going on under the covers but the fact is that I have little IIS7 experience and I might be missing something really easy. I thought I would ask here and see if someone could point me in the right direction.

Never mind, I figured it out.
The script didn't set the SSL Binding. Found the direction I needed here:

(yay Gu!)
I just needed to set the 443 binding to the right certificate in the default web.
Sorry to bother you all. Back to your regularly scheduled programming.
