SBS2003, Mobile 5 and multiple certificates



Hi

I currently have the following situation and invite comments /
suggestions:

Microsoft 2003 SBS environment which runs IIS 6.0. Remote users can
connect to the external IP address the firewall(say remote.company.com/
webmail) and access their exchange mail via outlook web access. There
is a locally generated Microsoft certificate attached to this. Webmail
appears to be part of the default website within IIS.

In order to deploy Mobile 5 I wanted to use a 3rd party certificate
(it appeared to be the more sensible option looking in the deployment
guide) linked to mobile5.company.com. When creating the Certificate
Signing Request I was unable to do this via the Default Web Site
because there was already a certificate linked with it so created a
new site (as per Microsofts instructions) called, lets say, CSR.

The problems I now face are as follows:

1. Both the default site and CSR are using port 443 - when I restart
the server the default website does not start because of a port
conflict. This means webmail is not available until the CSR site is
stopped and default site started.
2. How do I get mobile5.company.com to point to the CSR site or can I
get mobile5.company.com to point to the default website because that
is where all the Mobile 5 admin site is installed by default.
3. I believe the certificate is now linked with CSR but should I be
linking it with the default website - is it possible to have 2
certificates linked to the same website?

I hope this makes sense to someone because I think I have got myself
in a bit of a muddle

Any comments / suggestions gratefully received.

.
