Step 5: Perform HTTPS Configuration on the Server (to use HTTPS rather than HTTP)
This step consists of two distinct processes: generating a self-signed certificate, if certificate does not exist, and
importing it to a Windows server. If one does not already exist, you must configure a self-signed certificate on
the Windows server to enable HTTPS/SSL communication with the BACS GUI on the Windows client. The
Windows client also must be configured with the self-signed certificate. See Perform HTTPS Configuration (if
you plan to use HTTPS).
1. Click Start (or press the Windows logo key) and select Run.
2. Enter gpedit.msc to open the local Group Policy editor.
3. Under Computer Configuration, open the Administrative Templates folder and then open the Windows
Components folder.
4. Select Windows Remote Management (WinRM).
5. Under Windows Remote Management (WinRM), select WinRm Client.
6. Under WinRM Client, double-click Trusted Hosts.
7. In the TrustedHostsList, enter the host names of the clients. If all clients are trusted then enter an asterisk
(*) only.
8. Select WinRM Service.
9. Enable Allow Basic Authentication.
To generate a self-signed certificate for the Windows Server:
Openssl on Windows can be used to generate the self-signed certificate, as follows:
1. Enter the following command to generate a private key:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024
2. You are prompted to enter a passphrase. Be sure to remember the passphrase.
Note: The self-signed certificate can be created on any Windows server. The server does not require
BACS to be installed. The self-signed certificate generated on any Windows server should be copied
on the local drive of client.
