Server certificate - CSR generation



Currently we have a cert in place for our web server (Win 2003 IIS 6). But
about a month from now we are going to change our web address / URL.

Is it possible to generate a CSR for the new URL and submit to the CA in
advance? My impression is that the current cert has to be removed first
before a new CSR can be generated. If that's the case, we'll have to wait
close to the cut over date.

Any insight appreciated.
