Ex: *.yourdomain.com --> IP address of your website host (not necessarily the same host for exchange). HTH! You may also want to check your A records for a wild card setting for your main domain.

Ex: *.yourdomain.com –> IP address of your website host (not necessarily the same host for exchange).

HTH!

You need to remove that, which is step one in my walkthrough. Whoops, I meant you still have an A-record for ‘autodiscover.domain.com’. You need to remove that, which is step one in my walkthrough.

You need to remove that. Only names that exist in your cert should be used, and if you create an autodiscover A-record, it will use that, and you're getting the error since that name is not in the cert. Or it could be that the system with Outlook still has some way of resolving the 'autodiscover.domain.com' record to an IP address, and that will cause the issue. Did you add that to the local hosts file? Sounds like you still have an A-record for remote.domain.com. You need to remove that.
