      I followed the instructions at pfsense.org for high availability, and everything worked great until I rebooted the backup node to test the system. When it comes back up it complains about the SSL cert.

      I have everything synced from master to backup, including certs. And it appears the cert being used for the backup node was wiped. (Makes sense I guess.)

      How do you have legitimate certs for the two different nodes but have syncing working?

      Thanks in advance for any help.

        So, I may have solved my own problem. I created a new CSR and created a cert with an Alternate name, so that the cert would work for both nodes. It seems to work. I'll report any oddities.
