RE: [cobalt-users] Tranferring SSL Certs from RaQ2 to RaQ3

["George A. Roberts IV" <grlists@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You're very welcome.  I'm not sure what causes the behaviour, but I experienced it as well the first time I installed a cert.  Please note that EVERY time you install a cert from a CA, you will have to restart the entire server, otherwise it will continue to give out the locally generated cert.  I believe I called Cobalt and was told that this was a bug and that they were working on a fix, but who knows how long THAT will take. :-)
