Ugg... that's nasty... so if one had only a mirror of the updates from
ftp.redhat.com the problem would never show itself?

cadmin upgradecert where it takes your existing certificate from
/etc/current and imports it to apache's location (if there isn't an existing
one)? But I don't really think it's worth your time :-) A quick section in
the docs about where to relocate your cert and which ports you should run on
to maintain full unchanged compatibity with 1.0.5 might help some migrators
though.

And 7.3-i386, 7.3-i586, and 7.3-i686, right?
