WCF Over SSL Uses Machine Name IIS 7.5

I am having trouble setting up SSL with my WCF on IIS 7.5. I have seen this post:

WCF not using computer name instead of domain name when viewing MyService.svc?wsdl

However, the solution for IIS 7 does not seem to be working for me. In addition, I have a wildcard ssl, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

I have tried modifying the applicationHost.config to both:

<bindings>
    <binding protocol="https" bindingInformation="<ip or *>:443:<my.domain.com>" />
</bindings>

and

<bindings>
    <binding protocol="https" bindingInformation="<ip or *>:443:<mycname>" />
</bindings>

IIS Resets seem to have no impact.

Little help anyone?

Going to answer my own question. The correct way to fix this is to adjust the web config on your WCF to include httpsGetEnabled="true". The relevant portion should look like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
    <system.serviceModel>
        <behaviors>
            <serviceBehaviors>
                <behavior>
                    <serviceMetadata httpsGetEnabled="true"/>
                </behavior>
            </serviceBehaviors>
        </behaviors>
    </system.serviceModel>
</configuration>

After making this adjustment, you will need to delete, and re-add your web reference. I rebuilt the project, but I am not sure if that is necessary.
