How to setup an SSL certificate for both IP & FQDN?

[Ahmed Badr]

Hi,

Following the instructions from the recent FreeNASTeam video I was able to setup my FreeNAS server as an "Internal CA" and created an "Internal Certificate" and now web browsers SSL connections works fine.

However creating the internal certificate I only had the option to enter one common name: either the IP address of the server or the server name (I have a DNS server on my LAN).

If the server is setup with a certificate generated with the IP address, it gives me certificate error in the browser if I access it with it's server name (resolved by my local DNS) and vice versa.

Is there a way to make the certificate work with both IP and DNS name?

PS: I tried making 2 certificated but in the System>General>Certificate I can only select one certificate.

Thanks

Probably need to roll it by hand, you want a Server Alternate Name Certificate (SAN Certificate).

Thanks, I'll look into that.
