Re: Cert generation in Windows SBS 2008

Try a couple of things;

a) install and run the SBS 2008 BPA and see what it turns up.
b) run the "fix my network wizard"

If neither works, it will be question and answer time:

a) what is the name you used on the certificate?
b) what is the URL you use to access RWW?
c) was this a migration, or a fresh (new domain) installation?

I just installed a new SBS 2008 server and was denied access to RWW...
citing a problem with the certificate. To make a very long story
short, I went into the CA management window and Revoked the 2
certificates there, deleted the Certificate Installation package and
went into the Internet Address Wizard and ran it again.

After running the wizard, I could see a new cert in the CA management
window, and could verify that it was, indeed, the cert being used by
the RWW website.

The problem is that the cert that was included in the Installation
Package I'm supposed to give out to the remote users isn't the same
cert I can see in the CA management window or the RWW web site. It
has a different name as well as a different serial number.

I know that the wizard isn't creating 2 different certs because the
cert in the installation package is dated yesterday. It probably the
1st cert generated by the SBS 2008 installation. The question is,
where is that cert and how do I replace it? It's not listed in the CA
management window.

Thanks for any insights. I'm far from a cert pro, so feel free to
talk down to me. :)

Max.
