How Long Does It Take RapidSSL Certificates Issue?
Jun 10, 2007
I signed up with namecheap.com for RapidSSL. I had my hosting provider generate a CSR for me and I put it in namecheap. Then I receive an email from namecheap that says:
==========
Thank you for your RapidSSL order.
Supplier Order Id: ######
An email will be sent to the designated approver with instructions on how to approve your certificate request for xxx.domain.com.
==========
This was sent about two hours ago. I need this SSL fast as it is the backbone of my website. Namecheap doesn't have phone support and RapidSSL is closed on weekends. Any insight on when I'll get instructions to move onto the next step?
does anyone know if RapidSSL is accepted by most used browsers (IE, Firefox, Opera and Safari)?
also, if I want to protect "secure.domain.com", do I need to issue the certificate exactly for "secure.domain.com" and it probably wouldn't match "www.secure.domain.com"? Can't I get a certificate for "*.domain.com"?
I entered the domain name in wrong - domain.com instead of www .domain.com - and decided to not approve it when you get to the final step as rapidssl said to do.
So how long do i need to wait before namecheap will update the status so that I can start the process again ?
A While back I found a great deal for SSL certficates so I purchased a bulk package of about 10 of them and used several of them at the time. Now when I went back to use the rest of my pre-purchased SSL certificates (more than a year later), the "contracts" have apparently EXPIRED and the money that was put into those contracts has been frozen along with the contracts! WHAT THE F#$@!
That is such BS! When you pay money for something you should get something in return.
What have I learned... That to me seems extremely manipulative of RapidSSL and Geotrust...
I WILL NEVER PURCHASE AN SSL FROM Rapid SSL or Geo Trust AGAIN! and I hope this post inspires others to select one of the many other certificate sellers out there that are more upfront about their business.
I have contacted both of them and both are telling me that they cannot help me.
Now that I am looking for a new SSL provider can someone give me a good respectable company.
Signed up and paid the first month for a 'Linux Entry' + 1 GB mySQL around 4:45PM today. It's now 11:21PM and I have not heard anything or received any Emails for remote access. Does it usually take this long?
Reading thru this site they seemed to be one of the best if your on a $30/month budget.
Maybe setting up the Linux stuff takes longer for them than Windows?
How long does it normally take to get a shared account setup with a hosting provider? I am now in my 5th day and still have not had the account setup. I have made my DNS changes and I just keep getting email responses that it is coming. Should I be worried or is a week the normal response time in a shared environment?
I recently read around here and people had their VPS setup within 5 minutes in some cases. I've ordered a VPS from VirPus and I'm not sure how long it usually takes to setup. I'm nearing the 24 hour mark so I'm not sure. How long on average is an acceptable waiting time? or how long would you say it should take?
I just signed up with a new host. How long should I expect it to transfer sites through WHM? I know it depends on the size of the sites but how long does the average 100M site?
I got one free with my host, but it seems tohave been over 24 hours since i ordered it (via my host) how long does it take, am i being impatient, or is it just the host not bothering to sort it out?
For some reason on a box I have, it takes 25 seconds from the time I hit enter for a usernames password for it to login via SSH. I am running CentOS 4.4
Is there something I can check to see why it is taking so long and/or fix this?
I have a server running SUSE. dual quad core chips, 16 gigs of RAM.
It's a webserver only running Apache.
We have been having a problem the past few days where page loads take forever yet CPU load and RAM load are very, very low.
I've noticed when it happens when viewing HTOP that TASKS jump from about 350 average to 1000 average. Pages won't start loading until this number drops.
I see no errors in error_log or messages however restarting Apache seems to fix the issue?
I've tried messing around with KEEPALIVE settings with no help.
Any clues on where to start? Pretty lost on this one becuase I see no errors and the load both CPU and RAM are low.
I am using Servint and I am looking for another provider with similar reputation/reliability. I have heard many good things about Zone.net on this forum, but they don't have any reviews older than a few months. Have they been around long, if so, why no early posts?
what happened not sure really, but asked volumedrive to reboot the machine like an hour ago and it has still not come online, anyone know or has experience with VD and how long it usually takes them to reboot machine? Or is there any outages anyone is aware that VD is facing right now ?
Damn i got some upset users already ready to shoot the bunny, baah this proxy hosting is kinda harder than one would imagine
Anyone have experience with this company? (Ecatel.nl / Ecatel.net / Ecatel Ltd)
On Pre-Sale the support reply to my tickets very very fast (even on weekend or at night).
After read a few topics here on wehostingtalk, today, at 14h ago i decided to rent the server and pay the bill, since that i dint have a single answer to my questions, i already try to contact suport 3 or 4 times.
This is my first dedicated server, could someone tell me if this is normal?
On ecatel.se (same company) I see a "Server ready 60 minutes after order" but as i say already pass 14h and nothing.
I have a few vps on different providers and I was shoring up my hostnames to make them more cohesive for the different servers.
I placed a request with a well-known, premium vps provider this morning at 9am EDT and am still awaiting them to complete the host name change. They came back immediately and said an admin would have to handle and then noting for hours. At approx 2p EDT, I asked for an update and I received a response at nearly 4pm EDT saying they were still waiting for their admin to get back.
Keep in mind this is a fully-managed, not cheap, vps with a very good rep here on wht.
Am I expecting too much?
I'd change it myself, but I'm unable to do so with virtuozzo.
I recently deployed an OpenBSD machine using pf to be a router/firewall for my home LAN, using NAT and sitting between our cable modem and our switch. It seems to work great.
But I just noticed an 'active' connection to a website... It's been open for 19 hours. 12KB of traffic has flowed over the connection, and the machine on the local end that initiated the connection is a laptop that's been offline for hours.
My question is twofold:
- Why hasn't this been dropped, after hours of inactivity?
- Short of restarting everything, is there a way to instruct PF to drop the connection / lose state information on it?
This is a networking question at the top tier level.
Why does ATT, and others, deliberately insert a long delay (500 ms) in all packet traffic at major gateways. This is plain obvious for traffic across major links (Pacific, or to Asia, etc). I can ping plott over a few hours, and it's easy to see this is deliberately inserted delays, and manipulated as they choose.
Is this the major players trying to channel traffic through other major connnections? Or them giving priority (or non priority) to various major ISP's as they choose? Or them pretending they have run out of band width?
Yes I know at this time the Taiwan problem exists, but this happens all the time year round, and fluctuates at very predictable amounts at various times of day.
