If it's a third party certificate with any well-known provider you might want to make sure the details of the certificate are correct and match the name of the OWA server etc.

Sometimes you see this issue with Wildcard certificates, but for the most part you should not have problems.

If all else fails you can probably have users manually install the certificate, or deploy it out to all the affected machines. The links Nimmo provided should show you how.

As for self-signed certs, they're creat if you have your own CA and all the machines are on a domain where you can use GPO to make your CA trusted, it gets a little trickier if you have a bunch of users on non-domain PCs wanting to access OWA.
