after you clone the vm, stop it, delete the nic and re-add a new one..
about certs, you need to reconfigure your server changing the hostname

This is not specific for SME Server, AFAICT shutdown your server and modify the vmx file to change the MAC address and then fire up your server. You might need to reconfigure by using in as admin.
