Hey Tariq,

One issue to be aware of. When I generated my certificate and keys, it had
the start time set for 8 hours ahead of time. I can only imagine it set
this because of GMT time and I am US PST. You can check the start time for
the cert with the following command:

openssl x509 -in (name of cert).crt -text

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Thomas
