I suspect the IP address of the NAS changed after you generated the self-signed cert.

nope, I access the NAS with the same static IP.
I have the NIC's bonded, with 1 IP...and I just checked and its the same IP as the SSL Key Host

This is an issue for Chrome. I was able to add the cert in IE...and it was fine. I was also abel to use Edge and it was fine.

What's really needed is an easy path to getting a CA cert on the NAS.
