However, managing the PKI yourself is much more secure, and isn't that
why you're using SSL in the first place?

        Setting up RPC over HTTPS makes no difference to the current
users or the way that your network currently operates. Until you are
ready to deploy the feature the users will not see any difference.  
         
        One server can act as the RPC over HTTPS server for both
internal and external clients. However if you don't want to change the
client configuration each time they come in to the office, use a generic
name for the certificate and name of the server (mail.domain.com or
something like that) and then configure split DNS. 
        Split DNS will allow you to resolve mail.domain.com to the
internal IP address on your network, while mail.domain.com will resolve
to the public IP address outside. 
        That will make it totally transparent to the users. I have
deployed it in the past where the first the users knew of it was when
they got email when they started Outlook before connecting to the VPN. 
         
        The only other suggestion I strongly recommend is to use a real
purchased certificate instead of a home grown certificate. While you can
do it with a self issued certificate, it causes more work and headaches,
whereas a cheap purchased certificate (rapidssl starterssl is perfect)
gets round a lot of the problems.

        I am planning on implementing rpc over http
        I have dc server and exchange server, will all users
        be forced to use rpc over http? 

        When I make registry changes on the exchange server for RPC
proxy
        does that effect my current RPC authentication or does that
effect only
        rpc over http requests?
        

        Can one exchange server act as a internal server for lan clients
        and simultaneously act as a external rpc over http server

         

        Thanks in advance, Jeff
