And for Windows, easiest way to do is with SelfSSL available in IIS 6.x Resource Tools.

Well, it always does somehow depending upon the dns and the way of addition being followed :D

0x800706d5 NLB Error

0x800706d5 NLB Error

To fix, make sure:

1. The host you’re adding, your DNS server can resolve its FQDN/Computer name or you’ve a proper entry of it setup in Windows hosts file. This also means that a proper DNS suffix is setup if its a FQDN under Computer name properties.

2. And you’re logging in to this dialog box using full computername i.e. “computername/administrator” instead of merely using computername.

OR

Just in case if you prefer to do things manually like I usually do then this would have already set you free from catchy Windows wizards ;)
