Thanks Kirk, Yes that did it. My domain name is now updated but I still feel no love with the console proxy. The URL has been updated and everything is resolving correctly but I still can't connect via the remote console. I used a self-signed CA and server cert so I'm wondering if that is my problem. I'm going to keep digging and what I'm missing. My guess is the Root CA I created is not trusted in the system.
As a side not for anyone trying to update the cert in the UI and getting an error the it's an invalid cert I did the following. 1. Created CA private key - openssl genrsa -des3 -out mydomain.priv.key 2048 * Remember password you will need it 2. Created CA certificate request file - openssl req -new -key mydomain.priv.key -out mydomain.req 3. Self-sign my CA request - openssl x509 -req -days 7305 -sha1 -extfile /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf -extensions v3_ca -signkey mydomain.priv.key -in mydomain.req -out mydomain.crt 4. Created a server key - openssl genrsa -out cloud.mydomain.priv.key 2048 5. Generate Server certificate request file - openssl req -new -key cloud.mydomain.priv.key -out cloud.mydomain.req 6. Sign my server request - openssl x509 -req -days 7000 -sha1 -extfile /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf -extensions v3_req -CA mydomain.crt -CAkey mydomain.priv.key -CAcreateserial -in cloud.mydomain.req -out cloud.mydomain.crt *** This last step is what fixed my UI error on an invalid SSL key 7. create a PKCS8 key file - openssl pkcs8 -topk8 -in cloud.mydomain.priv.key -inform pem -out cloud.mydomain.pkcs8.key -outform pem -nocrypt In the UI put the contents of cloud.mydomain.crt into certificate field. Put the contents on cloud.mydomain.pkcs8.key into the PKCS#8 Private Key and finally put your domain name in. On Sun, Dec 30, 2012 at 4:55 AM, Kirk Kosinski <kirkkosin...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi, Rob.
