I have some conflicting information here. It seems that renewing an SSL cert on a running site should not affect anything as per here:
http://www.geocerts.com/csr/iis_renew_6
They recommend just renewing the cert.
But digicert who we are using as our provider recommentd creating a dummy site and generating the request off that:
http://www.digicert.com/ssl-certificate-renewal-iis-6.htm
Is there a proper and recommended way to go here? Anyone got any reasons why you would choose one way over the other?
Cheers
Paul
