So we run VMware, and this morning I go and check a thing, and Firefox gives me an error.. connection insecure cert is invalid

No I don’t have the exact verbiage

But Edge and Chrome opened it just fine. Whisky Tango?

It was a rekeyed , and re installed the cert for an easy ish fix.

But I’m far more weirded out that FF slapped it down ; and the other two were like; Ja sure no problem…

Without having opened the cert in firefox and seeing what exactly happened there's not really any way to know.

Right. And oddly I couldn’t even do that. FF wouldn’t even acknowledge that there was a certificate.

It showed an https but blocked the page and would not show the certificate at all

Did a full reinstall of the cert CSR — new cert fixed the issue.

Just very odd FF Bx

Tbf, I think they just reissued certs today, as that was one of the packages in my daily "pacman -Syu"

Giving you an up vote instead of myself leaving a snarky comment.
