Updating SSL keys on VMware ESXi

Updating the SSL keys, every year 🙁 on stand alone ESXi servers is a PITA.

To make things worse, there are no EASY instructions out there how to do it. VMware wants you to create PEM files or something… just a pain in the butt.

I found a posting on Filecloud, they have easy to follow instructions on enabling SSH and installing new keys. Works, easy & quick.
