Hi
If here are any SBS specialist, please correct me if i'm wrong
On a normal exchange machine I would advise you to use a SAN/UC certificate and include the following names:
owa.domain.com
autodiscover.domain.com
servername.domain.local
servername
Please run these commands and post the result
Get-ClientAccessServer | fl AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri,
AutoDiscoverServiceExternalUri
Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | fl internalurl, externalurlJonas Andersson MCTS: Microsoft Exchange Server 2007/2010 | MCITP: EMA 2007/2010 | MCSE/MCSA Blog:

I don't know what this "sites" is used to, maybe Sembee or someone else in the forum can give you an answer on that
So be careful in this case!
Normally this should be something like
AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri : https://autodiscover.domain.com/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml
AutoDiscoverServiceExternalUri : https://autodiscover.domain.com/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml
WebServicesVirtualDirectory:
InternalUrl : https://mail.domain.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx
ExternalUrl : https://mail.domain.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx
And then create a DNS zone internally with the name: domain.com
and setup the necessary dns records like autodiscover, mail, ftp, www etc.
Don't forget anything or else it will have impact on your usersJonas Andersson MCTS: Microsoft Exchange Server 2007/2010 | MCITP: EMA 2007/2010 | MCSE/MCSA Blog:

You need to run the "Add a Trusted Cert Wizard" in the SBS 2008 console. This will create the Certificate request for your domain, very important that the cert be named remote.yourdomain.com! I prefer Go Daddy SSL certificate which can be used
in SBS 2008, this does not require a multi domain certificate. http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/archive/2008/09/20/introducing-the-add-a-trusted-certificate-wizard-in-sbs-2008.aspx
