RE: Help changing to 3rd party Certificate

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi John,

I believe www.godaddy.com have a walk through of installing the cert in IIS
- fairly straightforward. You then re-run the CEICW after this process and
voila...apparently :)

I have decided to install a 3rd party Certificate to make connectivity with
Mobile devices easier for our users.



I have down loaded the SBSMobile5 doc from the MS site - laying out the
steps to deploy mobile devices. It goes on regarding steps to follow re:
installing a 3rd party certificate. The steps included;

1. Removing the old server generated certificate

2. Purchasing a new certificate - Wizard to general CSR request

3. Down loading new Certificate from issuer

4. Re-running the Internet connection wizard - selecting new
certificate



After I did these steps - id did not appear that the certificate was
installed properly - i.e. company web>mail - still showed new server
generate certificate vs. 3rd party one



I tried to go through the steps again;

1. IIS Wizard to request new Certificate

2. Internet Connection Wizard to import new certificate.

When I go through the Connect to Internet Wizard - I get an error that "No
Cert has been requested for the default site"



Separate observation - In IIS there appears to be two top level Default web
sites; One looks like the one generated from SBS, and one default site looks
like it was generate from the Mobile Admin application.



HUMMM;

1. It looks like I need to clear - the old request in the IIS MMC

2. Clear Internet Connection wizard queue - as it does not think there
is a new cert being processed

3. Possible request 3rd part y issue to issue new certificate
