Had a problem with several FreeNAS 11 systems – when trying to enable https for the web interface I couldn’t get a working certificate.
- Generate internal CA.
- Generate internal certificate.
- Chrome complains the certificate is invalid and does not allow you to bypass it.
- Delete certificate and CA, repeat, same problem.
After mucking about with using upper and lower case for the certificate CN names etc, eventually got things to work by generating a second certificate with the same CA. Which makes me think it might be this problem:

Had an issue where OneDrive for Business (installed with Office 365) was constantly using one CPU core. None if the fixes involving the cache or resetting the client worked. The problem seems to have started with recent (possibly after Office 365 1712 8827.2148) updates. What did work was the solution in this thread:

Problem: You have a SVN server sitting behind a reverse web proxy (e.g. for convenient SSL termination purposes). This works for new files, changes etc. but fails when you try to rename something, make a copy or move. The error is:
Unexpected HTTP status 502 'Bad Gateway'
The reason is explained here, but to summarise:
These operations involve sending a http COPY method. This includes a Destination: field in the header, which is not rewritten by Apache’s ProxyPass directives. Thus the destination field starts with https – not http. This confuses mod_dav on the SVN server.

See the guide for 16.04, but with the following caveats:
Looks like you still need to add nis explicitly to /etc/nsswitch.conf
The rpcbind service issue appears to be fixed.
Ran into an error with FreeNAS (version 11.1-RELEASE) where the system was complaining about running out of swap space (first noticed there was a problem when getting repeated emails about ‘Unauthorized system reboot’). The error on the console and in /var/log/messages is:
servername kernel: pid 26118 (python3.6), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space
Fortunately NFS was still working, and console login (using the second console) worked. Used this to enable ssh:
