when I click on this site I'm getting warnings about the site may not be legit or clock or expired certificate??? anyone else?
Sometimes it just takes time for the new certificate to propagate throughout the inter-webs. I finally got to SM using Chrome without the error today.
Error code: SEC_ERROR_EXPIRED_CERTIFICATE The "admin" responsible for the simple process of renewing the security fails to do his job, again.
The renewal of SSL Certificates is a regular predictable event that can be diary noted, and prepared for in advance of necessity. There are some processes involved, How to Renew Your SSL Certificate in 4 Simple Steps (2023 Tutorial) but nothing that appears to be particularly onerous, other than stumping up the money from the site's operating budget, to get the renewal application processed.

Goodness Andy, my objective was not to cast nasturtiums in any particular direction. Just pointing out the general processes involved in doing an SSL certificate renewal....the last three or so SSL Cert expiries have resulted in a 4 or more day site hiatus. It's no skin off my nose, I just spend a little more time on other pursuits. But am impressed with your tone policing. It deserves a halo.
Good training when the site goes down. Lets you see if you suffer from a meme addiction, or if you can turn your focus to more important stuff like actually living, going to bed at a reasonable time, and speaking to people face to face. Many thanks to @melbo and the crew that got things back up again. There was never any doubt.
During the down-time I actually figured out why I had no closet space. I got all my dress shirts and winter coats hung up for the first time in years.
That is the "winter stuff." My Coleman vest and thousand-miler jacket are all I need here at the beach.
Said the certs had expired and could not be sure it was safe. I am sure it is another part of our great loss of B T Post and many others. B T was an expert on all that sort of that. sh** as well as a lot of other things. Thank you Melba and crew. As always the general leads the parade, the soldiers fought the battles, people in supply got the food, gas, ammo, etc to them, a civilian raised the food, made the ammo, etc. It is a team effort and on the net if it fails, the site is gone. Don't do as. much as I should, but really appreciate all the hard work and time put in by those that maintain and preserve the Monkey.
