Hello Chris,

I agree it should not stop it from working but a bad startup configuration due to a missing or expired certificate can stop some servers from starting up.

I agree that a *missing* cert is an error condition on the server side, while handling an expired cert should be handled solely by the client. Just think about you're no longer able to sign on remotely because that cert has expired, preventing you to fix that error in the first place…

:wq! PoC
