Renewing the 'localhost' Certificate

This message comes about a year after the system is first installed:

################# SSL Certificate Warning ################

  Certificate for hostname 'ramandu.williams.localnet', in file (or by nickname):
     /etc/pki/tls/certs/localhost.crt

  The certificate needs to be renewed; this can be done
  using the 'genkey' program.

  Browsers will not be able to correctly connect to this
  web site using SSL until the certificate is renewed.

The reference to 'genkey' is cryptic and really should have a more specific command, but ...

The correct command sequence to generate the new certificate is (as root):

genkey --days 9999 --cacert 'hostname'
cd /etc/pki/tls/certs
rm localhost.crt
ln -s `hostname`.crt localhost.crt
