Now our go daddy SSL certificate is expiring (no surprising we choose go daddy the first time: because they made more advertisements), I wish to take this chance to use another certificate issuer. We need cheap Intranet level certificate, from a certificate issuer that is more Linux-friendly. Which certificate issuer Linux admins prefer? For me not necessarily a USA company.

In my case we cannot use CACert.org.

If it's just for an intranet server, you can create your own certificate using apache.

If you do that, then your Intranet users will need to accept your machine as a signing authority. Not a big deal if it is just a few users. If you have a few hundred users on your intranet, it is probably easier to get the cert from a pre-authorized signing authority.

Or you could send out a company-wide (email) memo.
