Certificate Security Alert   
Hello;

We have Exchange 2007 and Outlook 2007. When users open Outlook they get a 
Security Alert telling me the "name on the security certificate is invalid or 
does not math the name of the site. Do you want to proceed. I currently dont 
have a certificate in place. How can I stop this from coming up?

RE: Certificate Security Alert   
Hi Lee,

Thanks for posting in our newsgroup.

From your description, I know that when you open Outlook 2007, you get the 
"The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name 
of the site". If that's not right, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Based on my research, this issue is caused by that you changed the security 
certificate installed on your Exchange 2007 server and the Issue To name of 
the certificate now doesn't match the internal FQDN name of your Exchange 
server. For more info about this error, please refer to the following KB 
article:

923575 Error message when Outlook 2007 tries to connect to a server by 
using an RPC connection or an HTTPS connection: "There is a problem with 
the proxy server's security certificate"
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;923575

Based on my knowledge, we may have two possible solutions for this 
particular issue:

1. The straightforward solution is to contact the third-party vendor who 
you get the new security certificate from, and confirm whether their 
certificate supports Subject Alternative Names. If so, you can ask them to 
simply issue a new certificate with both internal name and external name of 
your Exchange 2007 server, and then install the new certificate to solve 
the problem.

2. Alternatively you need to change the AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri 
value on your Exchange 2007 ClientAccess Server (CAS) to match the Issue To 
name of your current security certificate. To do so, please follow these 
steps:

i.) First we need to check the current value of 
AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri in your Exchange 2007 CAS server:

a. In Exchange Management Shell, run the command: GET-ClientAccessServer | 
fl

b. Then you will see the following as example:

Name                           : <your Exchange 2007 Server name>
OutlookAnywhereEnabled         : False
AutoDiscoverServiceCN          : <your Exchange 2007 CAS name>
AutoDiscoverServiceClassName   : ms-Exchange-AutoDiscover-Service
AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri : https://<internal name of your Exchange 
2007 CAS>/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml

c. Then check whether the name in AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri matches 
the name in the Issue To field of the security certificate you are using 
now. If it doesn't match, it will cause the error your users encountered.

ii.) In order to fix the error, we have to change the 
AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri to match the Issue To name on the 
Certificate. In addition we have to change the path on the Default Web 
Site. To do that:

a. First run the following commands in the Exchange Management Shell on 
your Exchange 2007 CAS so that we would have a backup listing of the 
current settings:
Get-Clientaccessserver <your Exchange 2007 server NetBIOS name> | fl > 
backupCAS.txt
Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | fl > backupWeb.txt

b. We then run the following commands

Set-Clientaccessserver <your Exchange 2007 server NetBIOS name> 
-AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri https://<external name of your Exchange 
2007 which is in the Issue To field of current 
certificate>/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml

set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory "<your Exchange 2007 server NetBIOS 
name>\EWS (Default Web Site)" -InternalUrl https:// <external name of your 
Exchange 2007 which is in the Issue To field of current 
certificate>/EWS/Exchange.asmx

Hope this helps. 

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Best regards,

Is there a way to use the self-signed certificate for the internal uri
and use the certificate that I bought for the external?
