Self Signed Certificate SBS 2003 with multiple names

IS it possible to have a self signed certificate with multiple name? I bought a cert yrs ago from geo trust for sbs that allowed multiple friendly names so I could go to https://www.whatever.com as well as https://lanserver and not get the red bar. Since that cert expired I have been using a self signed one, but I am unsure how to make it work for both public and local sites since they are the same site. Right now I get the red bar because the local name doesn't match the name on the cert. How can I fix this? I am also using ISA 2004 so I assume I would need to add this cert to the "web listener" as well.

I guess at the end of the day I could use the public domain name on the local network. I just know my old cert worked so i know there is a way to make this work. If it is going to cost I will just deal with more typing. Just most of the SBS programs etc setup to use the local server name. Just thought it would make life easier.

I will accept your solution because I may actually go that route; However, I did find some information in a Microsoft KB. I will post it in case it helps someone. Since I have the certificate authority alreayd installed I may give this a shot.
