Re: Wrestling with SSL Cert

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Jon,

Is all of this done in DCM or are you dealing with a different web 
server and security provider (like OpenSSL or using java keytool).  To 
renew a certificate, you really don't need a new keypair unless you are 
changing something about certificate.  The CSR just validates that you 
are who you say you are....but if DCM generated the CSR and NameCheap 
used it, then importing the cert shouldn't be an issue.  Perhaps 
NameCheap isn't a CA in the certificate store?  If not, you'll need to 
import it.
