My SSL cert is going to expire shortly. I just need to know if in the EMC do I do a New Exchange Cert or can I right click on the SSL cert and do renew?
When I tried to do a renew it asks for a .req file. How would I generate that?
I usually just generate a new request using the same CN and SANs. I've been working on a PowerShell script that will automate it based on an existing cert, but it's not ready yet.

Are you deleting the old one first? I renewed my SSL via godaddy and used the same CSR request and have the new cert. I tried running the Renew Cert from the EMC but that does not seem to work. I want to generate a new CSR and now when I try to do New Exchange Certificate I choose what I want but it wants me to put in and organizational Unit. I do not remember doing this last time. I am running Exchange 2010 SP1
I renew my cert, I generated a new request and everything went fine EXCEPT now when I go to my website it is no longer redirecting from http->https. If I just do mail.myserver.com/owa I am geting Forbidden Access
Certificates don't have anything to do with the redirection. Check how you're doing the redirection. Are you using a custom error page? Are you using a redirect page? Redirecting within TMG?
I know the cert doesnt have anything to do with that I was just wondering if when I overwrite the cert if it reset IIS back to defaults. I got it going now. I just redid the redirection in IIS Manager.
