Renew expired SSL Certificate for remotewebaccess.com SBS2016 Essentials

Question

How do I renew a Windows Server Essentials 2016 expired SSL Certificate for my Microsoft personalized domain name ending in remotewebaccess.com? The original certificate was issued by GoDaddy, but they cannot reissue the certificate because is is issued under the Microsoft owned domain remotewebaccess.com.

Hi,

For renewing SSL certificate used for essential server, kindly check the steps shared by TDell987 in below link.

He mentioned when choosing the 'use another domain or domain name service provider' option even though you don't want to do either of those things. This will offer the opportunity to use a personalised .remotewebaccess.com domain. So you follow that and surprise, surprise you are asked whether you want to use the existing myserver.remotewebaccess.com domain or create a new one or pick another you have created earlier.
