Updated Self Signed Cert But not all services are in new Updated cert

Question
-
Running Exchange 2007 SP/3 - Have two hub servers and one CCR.
I ran the -ExchangeCertificate -Thumbprint 3F97AA40AA8E5E620ADB1E0D807EF87290179087 | New-ExchangeCertificate command to update the existing certificate on my original hub server ( added a second hub server about 3 months ago ).
The problem I'm having is when I updated the certificate it did not include IIS. I only had one cert on the machine and it did have the W included in it but when I generated the new certifcate it does not include IIS.
Is this because I have two hub servers?
What can I do to resolve this? Do I need to create a seperate self signed cert for IIS?

Self-signed certificates don't help you much for web services unless you import that certificate on every client that uses it as a trusted certificate. You can assign services to the certificate by using the Enable-ExchangeCertificate cmdlet.

That resolved it. The old cert still showed to be the cert for IIS.
Once I ran this command it removed IIS from the old cert and applied it to the new cert I generated earlier:
Enable-ExchangeCertificate -Thumbprint F04164B745F67746D0055194F42121262D99A925 -Services "POP,IMAP,SMTP,IIS"
Thanks for 1. Giving the resolution and 2. Giving it to my so quickly. I was sweating bullets.
Thank you

Shouldn't my post be the answer, then?
