Have no idea :) But it would help if I gave you the right name... duh... sorry. Namecheap.com is the correct company - https://www.namecheap.com/security/ssl-certificates/domain-validation.aspx >It's also amazing that all it takes to get an SSL cert is to receive email >sent to the Whois contact.

I guess my question though is why does it have to be free? I'm paying $9/yr for SSL certs right now - just bought two this morning. Comodo via NameSecure .... They are basic domain validated SSL certs - which is fine for the purpose I'm using them for.... -----Original Message----- From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christopher Tyler Sent: Friday, April 10, 2015 4:32 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] our shiny new website Something to keep on your radar..
