Hi Robert,

this message was probably there before and is unlikely to be caused
by any upgrades inside the RHEL 6 tree.

Apache complains that the name in your SSL certificate does not match
the servers own FQDN (output from "hostname" command). That's nothing
unusual and will not impact your SSL sessions in any way.

Kind regards,
   Steve
