Microsoft TMG needs a restart after installing Root Chain certificate

After installing a root certificate from Entrust and the Root Chain on Microsoft TMG, i was still getting the "CA Untrusted" error when connection over Outlook Web App frome the internet. Talking to the Entrust support folks, said they required a restart especially if a Root Chain cert is installed.

A restart of the TMG and all started working with Outlook Web App.

UC experience: Cisco vs Microsoft « IT based Communications

UC experience: Cisco vs Microsoft « IT based Communications: "UC experience: Cisco vs Microsoft"

Remember: An UC business case is all about end-user experience and productivity. CUCIlync should be carefully evaluated like any other scenario, but in this particular case if something goes wrong you might get a bad impression about the whole solution (ex: a customer might get the ideia that the “lync videocall” is failing).

The real disadvantage is see here is the idea that VPN is required from Cisco perspective for remote connectivity where else a Lync client on remote just need an internet connection to establish connection with the Lync environment using TLS.
