Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Dedicated Server : ssl cert and changing servername

[aqi32]

hey guys

last month i generated an ssl request and key but since then i changed the servername. Does it affect it at all? also because i will be changing the servername back again in a few months.
I'm wondering because the cert request and key got emailed to me from ssl@old.servername.com

cheers

The server name should not affect an SSL certificate (otherwise you'd not be able to move a certificate from one server to another, which you can).
