Renew self signed Exchange 2007 certificate

by Chris on Sep.24, 2008, under Blogging, Computers, Windows

I had to do this today, so I thought I would blog it so I can remember how to do it next year. :)

Instructions are after the jump.

1) Get the current cert information:

Get-ExchangeCertificate -domain “domain name” | fl

2) Create and install the new cert:

Get-ExchangeCertificate -thumbprint “Long HEX thumbprint of cert 1″ | New-ExchangeCertificate

If you using the cert on SMTP you have to answer yes to the question that pops up.

3) Get the new certs information:

Get-ExchangeCertificate -thumbprint “Long HEX thumbprint of new cert” | fl

4) To enable the certificate for IIS:

Enable-ExchangeCertificate -thumbprint “Long HEX thumbprint of new cert” -services IIS

5) Once it’s working, remove the old cert

Remove-ExchangeCertificate -thumbprint “Long HEX thumbprint of cert 1″

Pretty easy I’d say.

    Thanks, dude.

    I unsuccessfully tried other posted methods from so-called experts that did not work.

    Yours worked perfectly.
