Does SSL work with NTLM authentication? or should I go SSL with Kerberos?

I am setting up an extranet farm and I need to use SSl. I have seen blogs that talk about SSL and Kereberos together. Can I setup SSl to use NTLM instead of kerberos?

SSL works independantly of any of the types of SharePoint authentication allowed. It just secures the session and data going back and forth as its IIS setup.

Yes, you can use SSL with NTLM. Be sure though when you setup your search that you index a non ssl virtual of your sharepoint site.

  • Can you recommend me to a source to setup an extranet with SSL? –  Dec 02 '09 at 22:24
  • I don't have a complete source, but the issue I am talking about also applies to forms auth and is discussed here: http://wsssearch.com/formauthentication.html – Steve Lineberry Dec 03 '09 at 04:24
