ReadyNAS Ultra 4 SSL Certificate
Hi all, I became annoyed with always having that SSL warning when logging into FrontView so I wanted to get my certificates sorted out. I have read a fair few threads here and haven't been able to resolve this.
My SSL certificate was generated on a DHCP assigned IP address (192.168.1.36) but I have subsequently assigned a static IP address (192.168.1.3). Chrome, IE etc all take issue with this IP mismatch. I changed the IP in the SSL Key Host field and hit regenerate, but the cert is still saying the old IP address. I have exported that certificate and imported it into my Trusted Root Certificate Authorities but to no avail, my browsers don't like that IP discrepancy.
Any ideas?

- Perhaps there's some cache you need to clear in your browser?
Have you delete the old certificate from your browser? - I was using OpenSSL to print the certificate via SSH and it still had the original IP address. However, this morning when I logged in it has been updated to the static IP. I think maybe I wasn't giving FrontView enough time to propagate my changes or something similar. Either way, I imported the new certificate and problem solved. The process was correct!
Thanks all the same.
