Certificate generating with old server name

benjaminhare

OES 2015.1 server was renamed.  The correct name is reflected in local hostname file, as well as nds.conf. Also, the server shows up under the correct name in eDirectory.  When the old certs expired and I regenerated new ones (ndsconfig upgrade) they were created with the old hostname.  Any ideas where/why ndsconfig is getting the old hostname?

    It would be interesting to compare with those created by the iManager, NetIQ Certificate Server, Repair Default Certificates.

    How is the general eDir health?   Do the following commands come back error free?

    ndsrepair -T
    ndsrepair -E
    ndsrepair -C -Ad -A

    All of the above ndsrepair options complete with zero errors.  Also, I note the name of the server is correct in the ndsrepair output.  Thanks for the suggestion about using iManager.  I gave it a try and it still generates the the cert with the old name.  Your suggestions got me thinking about DNS resolution so I did a lookup and confirmed the forward/reverse DNS entries reflect the correct name.  We don't even have an alias record for the old name, so DNS is ruled out.
