It is a warning - telling you that '*.4pphp.com' is not the same as f.ex.
'www.4pphp.com'. Wildcard certs used to work nicely with most browsers,
but at some time (IE on win2k) Microsoft decided to remove that feature -
so users with those browsers will get a warning that server name does not
match certificate. For a more detailed discussion of this, see the
openssl-users mailing list archive.
