Certificate questions (server names and IMAP)
I'm trying to understand how I can use one certificate for two servers. Here's the environment (Exchange 2010). I have two sites and each site has one CAS/HT/MBX server. Since both sites will be active. I'll have users at site1 connect to mail.company.com and users at site2 connect to mail2.company.com. Both DNS names will be used internally and externally. I ran the new cert request wizard on my Exchange server in site1 (command below) and I noticed that the New-ExchangeCertificate command included the switch "-Server 'exCHM1'." What is that switch for? How would I add exCHM2 (-Server 'exCHM1','exCHM2' doesn't work). Also, I'd like to let users access their mailboxes over IMAP both internally and externally. Today they hit serverName.company.com. In the wizard, IMAP can be checked under both CAS and HT. Which one should I use? Here is the command that the cert wizard generated: New-ExchangeCertificate -FriendlyName 'E2010' -GenerateRequest -PrivateKeyExportable $true -KeySize '2048' -SubjectName 'C=US,S="CO",L="City",O="Company",OU="Technical Operations",CN=company.com' -DomainName 'mail.company.com','kcmail.company.com','company.com','autodiscover.company.com','exCHM1.company.com ','legacy.company.com' -Server 'exCHM1' Thanks.

If you look at the cmdlet documentation, you will see that the -Server parameter "specifies the server name for which you want to create the new certificate. If not specified, the certificate or certificate request is generated for the Exchange server on which the command is executed." Just add exCHM2 to the -DomainName list and run the command from the EMS!http://LetsExchange.blogspot.com
