[f-nsp] problems binding new key and cert on ADX

Hi Jethro,

first of all: 12.5.01g is really old and is vulnerable to POODLE and a
few others. You really want to update this.

I assume you combined the intermediate cert into the regular cert file?
This will not work.

You need to use:

ssl profile www.something.com
 keypair-file yourkey.key
 certificate-file yourcert.crt
 ca-cert-file your-cert-ca-chain.crt
 enable-certificate-chaining


Cheers,
Jonas
