With my certs, I didn't happen to run into the 64-character limit, but now I know what to do if I need to add more hostnames to my certs.</p> Thanks, Chris.

I should know, being from Canada and all. :)</p> It’s a lovely picture, but I should point out that the bird standing in the middle of the photo is in fact a Canada Goose.
