Follow these steps to create a CSR on a Microsoft IIS 4 server:

- Go to Directory Security.
- Find the Secure Communications section. Under it, click on Key Manager, then click Create New Key.
- Choose Put the request in a file.... Then choose the file name. This can be left at the default settings if you wish.
- Enter the relevant company information into the corresponding fields.
- Keep clicking the Next button until you are done. Then click on the Finish button. When it asks if you want to save your changes, hit Yes.

After you get your SSL certificate and have installed the CSR, you can install your certificate.
