If they're paying you for this, it's worth $20 out of pocket to just get it done and out of your hair. If they're not paying you, tell them you need to borrow a credit card and they can watch. https://www.rapidsslonline.com/ less than $20/year, takes literally 15 minutes from start to having a certificate. Well, maybe 30 minutes the first time when you need to read everything. There are probably dozens of other sites offering similar services; I've used this one several times. -- Noel Jones
