RDP client did not see the correct SSL certificate

Renewed and installed the SSL certificate for our RDS 2008 server, however the RDP client kept receiving the invalid certificate error as below:
I first updated the SSL certificate in Gateway server properties, but it is no good. Eventually google and found out I missed one more step which is documented beautifully by MS here, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2000960

1. Open the "Terminal Services Configuration" windows in Windows Server 2008 or the "RD Session Host Configuration" in Windows Server 2008 R2.

2. Open the properties dialog of the "RDP-Tcp" connection.

3. On the "General" tab, check the selected certficate. Ensure that you select a correct certficate to make Terminal Server sessions or Remote Desktop sessions.
