We have a lot of SBS servers at our clients and naturally the self signed certificates (our clients don't like parting needlessly with money, so we never end up having third part signed certs) expire after 2 years of creation.
In the past, I used to run the "Set up your Internet Address" wizard to re-create the certificate as suggested on many forum posts, however I discovered a much neater (and probably correct way) of doing this earlier in the year.
1: Open up the Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard Console
2: Go to the Network Tab
3: Connectivity Tab
4: On the right hand menu select "Fix my network"
5: The wizard will search for potential problems and should identify that the certificate has expired
6: Renew the certificate
And that should be all
If the certificate isn't showing as expired in the fix my network then the setup your internet address wizard has never been ran - which could cause problems!
