    Could be easier to just get a free public one StartSSL not SAN though so you need to tweak things to all run on the sae subdomain.

    Exchange generates a self signed cert but only with the local computer name/info.

    Have used one of these in the past, it works. Instead we went for the 123-reg £10 ones as allot of browsers didnt trust the free ones but did with the £10 one.

    Didn't www.ja.net offer free SSL certificates for schools. If I remember rightly, it was posted on here before

    The files it generates are "pem" exchange expects "pfx"

    Can you convert them?
