Now that' I've thought about this...
no don't change the Server Certificate
Should be Something like Server.YourDomain.com
And just a thought? is there a subdomain (Server.YourDomain.com)
from your domain pointing to your external IP?
You should be able to Ping server.yourdomain.com and get your external IP
If you can't call where you Host and have them Create a Subdomain and point
it to your external IP
