[Spacewalk-list] Still struggling with a signed certificate

[Robert Paschedag]

Your hostname is a FQDN....and not only the "hostname" (without .domain)?

Using only "hostname" within configs and using a wildcard certificate
does not work, because "*.domain" does NOT match only the hostname, if
you did not explicitly specify an alternate name within the certificate.

Regards,
Robert
