Serial Mismatch
Posted: Mon Dec 11, 2023 2:45 pm
Hi All,
My Server and Client Certificates expired this morning at the beginning of the work week. Lol. I had a good laugh. Anyway, I found how to renew them after some searching. I used the commands:
./easyrsa.real renew server nopass
./easyrsa.real renew client nopass
I then copied the new Server and Client certs and keys to the proper locations. Although the users can now log back in, I am curious as to why when I run the command easy-rsa show-expire, I am seeing a SERIAL MISMATCH.
The db_serial shows one serial and the cert serial is different. Do I need to update the db? How do I do that? Any help is appreciated as so far, I haven't been able to find that info.
