Unified Communications Certificates

[billybunter]

Im think of buying a DigiCert Unified Communications Certificates for exchange 2007. My url to my owa from outside the office is mail.test.com and the internal name of the the server is mailserver.test.lan. For everything to work with ex 2007 like owa, mapi, activesync and so on am I right in thinking on my cert I need to have,

mail.test.com
mail.test.lan
mailserver.test.lan
mailserver.test.com
autodiscover.test.com
autodiscover.test.lan

That would be enough.
The autodiscover is the big thing if you're after configuring Outlook 2007 clients over the Internet so remember to have an A record in your Internet DNS for autodiscover.

Thanks for that I only really want to be able to use it for OWA and active sync so I can gat push email to work with ssl. Do I need to put in the autodicover for these two? also when importing the cert is it just the IIS service I need to install it for to use it for owa and active sync and leave all the others to work as before?

You'll also want to tie it to TLS. I'd configure AutoDiscover as well, but that's just me.
