Sites are insecure, should be secure

Well now I got something to chew on, I tried to enter one of the sites in Chrome which is stricter than most, and it gave me the warning that the site is insecure, and it listed a reason, it said ERROR Common name invalid

So at least I have a clue that something is wrong with the cert. I will remake it. 

Multiple domains works, I will do it again, and try again, to see if all is well, if that doesn’t work, I will go to singular certs.
