I've spent the last two days attending the annual (virtually, this year of course) FileMaker conference. They've requested solutions be submitted to their soon-to-be 'marketplace' for review. I would consider submitting a 'lite' version of what I use but I'm still waiting for the latest FileMaker management team and their policies to get settled after so many retirements last year.
FileMaker book price is $75 per month for 5 users (their minimum), for ongoing license and continual upgrades. Gets you FileMaker on 5 desktops, FileMaker Server for a machine on-premises, WebDirect from the same server, free FileMaker Go for iPads and iPhones. 'Android' was announced 'coming soon' but I won't be holding my breath for that. Android can connect via browser anyway.
So, buy a solution file appropriate for sign shops outright or find the wherewithal to construct your own.

NOTE: IS&T recommends that IS&T Managed Servers be used for hosting FileMaker databases.
Only experienced server administrators should attempt to do so, particularly where databases with sensitive data and/or mission critical functions will be housed. The following web page offers MIT-specific configuration recommendations to help mitigate against security risks in the FileMaker hosting environment. In a changing computing landscape these recommendations in no way offer a guaranteed maintenance or risk-free hosting environment.

Note: The information on this page is accurate for FileMaker Server 17. Certain settings and features may differ for prior versions.

Overview

SSL allows for the encryption of data passed between FileMaker Server and FileMaker clients, as well as the web browser-based FileMaker Server Admin Console. A critical component of this function is the SSL certificate residing on the server. The FileMaker Server application ships with a self-signed SSL certificate that does not verify the server name. This default certificate is intended only for test purposes, and a custom SSL certificate is required for production use.

Instructions for Enabling SSL and Installing a Custom SSL Certificate

Instructions for configuring FileMaker Server to use SSL and requesting and installing a custom SSL certificate are provided here with the caveat that this process is best done by someone with server administration experience.

Some notes before we begin:

If you are using IS&T's managed hosting service, you do not need to worry about this process; it is all handled for you.
The following assumes that your server machine has already been set up with FileMaker Server installed and configured. Refer to Installing and Configuring FileMaker Server for more information on that process.
These instructions are for Windows servers only; the various file paths and FileMaker CLI commands will differ for Macintosh servers.

Configuring FileMaker Server for SSL

In the FileMaker Server Admin Console > Configuration>General Settings > Server Information, the Server Name should be entered with the fully qualified domain name (FQDN), i.e. <your hostname>.mit.edu.

Request and Instal a Custom SSL Certificate

With FileMaker Server 17, the process for requesting a certificate must be done through the command line interface. Importing a certificate can still be managed through the Admin Console. Instructions below will lead you through all the steps of making the request as well as importing the requested certificate.

Request an SSL Certificate for FileMaker Server 17 Using the Command Line Interface

Change windows oem to retail. 1. While logged into your server, open a command prompt as an administrator and run the following command to run the command from within FileMaker Server.

2. Run the following command, using your own values for the <fqdn> and <secret>:

EXAMPLES:

3. Two files, serverKey.pem and serverRequest.pem, will have been generated by the above command in the following folder: C:Program FilesFileMakerFileMaker ServerCStore.
4. Send an email to mitcert@mit.edu with serverRequest.pem file attached. Explicitly request a Comodo Elite SSL certificate for use with your FileMaker Server machine and include the hostname.
5. The custom certificate will be returned via email, generally within a day or two. The email will contain links to multiple formats of your new certificate. Download the signed certificate file labeled 'X509 Certificate only, Base64 encoded,' and the intermediate certificate file labeled 'X509 Intermediates/root only, Base64 encoded.' The resulting certificate files will be named <your FQDN>_cert.cer and <your FQDN>_interm.cer, respectively, with dots in the FQDN replaced with underscores. Copy the files to the FileMaker ServerCStore directory (path noted above).

Import and Bind the Certificates Using FileMaker 17 Server Console

1. Log into the FileMaker Server Console>>Configuration>>SSL Certificate
2. Select the Import Custom Certificate button and provide the requested files and your secret password as prompted and shown here before performing the Import with the Import button.

Signed Certificate File: yourDomainName.crt provided by the CA.

4. To stop and restart the FileMaker service, open the Windows Services Manager (via Control Panel > Administrative Tools > View local services) and restart the FileMaker Server service.
5. Return to the FileMaker Server Admin Console (note that you will need to log back in after restarting the FileMaker Server service). In the Database Server pane > Security tab, under SSL Connections, the Information note should now read 'The custom SSL certificate installed on this server originated from a certificate authority supported by FileMaker.' This confirms that the certificate has been properly installed and that SSL is ready for production use.
6. Make a backup of the serverRequest.pem and serverKey.pem files located in the FileMaker ServerCStore directory, along with the two certificate files and documentation of your encryption k
