Exchange ssl cert up for renewal.. who to use?

[sonofsanta]

So just looking at getting a UCC cert for Exchange, but would also love to shoehorn it into service for ePortal (internal and external) and my Smoothwall (internal). Is there any harm in just sticking all 9/10 subdomains and aliases in the one UCC and importing that same certificate on the 3 different servers? And if it can be done, when I run the New-ExchangeCertificate command on Exch2007, should I provide all the subdomains I'm buying for, even the non-email (i.e. eportal) subdomains?

 

Sorry to be a pain!

Id guess so yes.

 

I used this wizard to help generate the Exchange Shell Command I needed for all my domains:

It says 2010 but it worked fine for my 2007 server

I've got the 2k7 version of that open in another tab right now and that's what got me wondering - as that's generating the EMS command, does Exchange really need to be told all the eportal stuff? But then, would it hurt if I did?

[RabbieBurns]

it needs to be in, as it is used and embedded in the certificate request

Certificate in, working, cheap (& discounted, thanks Arthur), everything seems dandy.

 

GoDaddy support was fine for me, by the by - the automatic approval malarkey didn't work because it couldn't work out that lincs.sch.uk was the TLD in itself, it thought we owned the domain sch.uk and everything else was a subdomain - but got through to someone on phone support within a few minutes and had it all sorted by e-mail that evening. Dead simple.

 

Thanks everyone!
