<snip>When you configured SSL, was it for your admin instance

No, I just wanted to test it.

Do I do this by going into Work with secure applications, click on
QIBM_HTTP_SERVER_RTEKWEB, click Work with system certificate, click
*dftsvr, and click assign new certificate? If so, I tried
https://192.168.0.6, page cannot be displayed. I also shutdown and
restarted the server instance before doing this. I have to have
something setup incorrectly.

Okay, I'm a little confused here, but let me tell you what I got to
work:

1. I enabled SSL on my HTTP server.  I used port 443, by the way, which
is
the standard SSL port.

2. I assigned a self-signed certificate to my HTTP instance application
(and
NOT to my administration server!).

That was it.  I could now access my primary instance using
https://my400.  I
didn't even need to identify a port.

The glaring issue I see in your case is that you assigned your
certificate
to your ADMIN instance application, as if you wanted to access your
admin
instance via SSL.  When you configured SSL, was it for your admin
instance
or for your primary instance?

Second, I would test from within my firewall until I got it working (and
working means the little lock shows up in your browser), then try from
outside.
