I'm trying to create a cert for my mail servers, but needed to know what names to use. &nbsp;My companies local network is named <br />
domain.local<br />
and externally we are <br />
domain2.com<br />
<br />
so will the common name be <br />
mail.domain.local<br />
and the alts be <br />
autodiscover.domain.com<br />
mail.domain.com<br />
mail2.domain.local<br />
? &nbsp;<br />
I guess I'm really confused by how I secure my second exchange server. &nbsp;It won't have an external address, and the tutorials I've seen say not to netbios or .local names. &nbsp;<br />
