Re: Can I use a 3rd-party Certificate for RWW, OWA, etc?



HI Bryan,

Thanks for updates.

Your understanding about the issue is correctly, as I am not sure if you
have not installed ISA on your SBS domain, so I offer some information
about ISA server. You can ignore it.

The certificate did not relate to hardware firewall, so you did not need to
worry about hardware firewall setting. You only need to use CEICW to
replace the certificate for what you need.

Thanks again for your efforts. I am glad to hear that you got the
information you want. Please feel free to post here, if you have further
concerns.



Best regards,

Charles Yang (MSFT)

| Charles,
|
| Thanks for the reply! Based on what you have told me, I think my plan
will
| work. Let me make sure I completely understand your answer.
|
| You said:
| > ...but you can only use one certificate for multiple websites, if you
| > want to use ISA publish the website to internet.
|
| What do you mean by this? I don't understand your reference to ISA;
| I'm not running an ISA server.
|
| Also, when you say, "publish" the website to the internet", is that the
same
| as "make the website accessible from the internet"? I have several
public
| IP addresses. One is mapped to the SBS with 1:1 NAT, and one is mapped
to
| the IIS server with 1:1 NAT. This is configured in my hardware firewall,
so
| I can reach both servers via the internet by using their respective
public
| IP addresses.

|
| I understand this, and this is exactly what I want.
|

|
| I don't understand what you mean here, again, when you talk about ISA.
My
| hardware firewall separates my internal network from the public internet.
| 1:1 NAT is configured for both of the servers (SBS and IIS) that I want
to
| access via the internet, and on which I want to use the wildcard
| certificate. In other words, I plan to use the certificate on the
Default
| Web Site on the SBS so that all the built-in sites on the SBS are using
the
| new wildcard certificate. Both servers have unique public IP addresses.
|
| Do I understand you correctly that I *should* be able to do this? Let me
| know if I have omitted any important information.
|
| Thanks again Charles!
