- ins0 12y agoIn this "imperfect" world nowadays eveyone try to ship his responsability to someone else.
- billpg 12y agoI'll wait for someone else to respond to your comment.
- Piskvorrr 12y ago...where a 10-line cron script would have done the same job, in advance.
- jsight 12y agoAnd then the cron job (that only needs to work every few years) breaks and you find out about it after the fact when a user complains.
- Piskvorrr 12y agoNeeds to work every few years for each domain. Unless all your certificates expire at the same time (or you only have a few), this will be triggered a few times per year. And moreover, your scenario is essentially "worst case: fall back to previous behavior." That's not too bad...
