No - you should not put working files anywhere under bin.
Create a new directory under 

{prefix}/var/sipxdata/configserver

and pass the path to that directory to the gen-ssl-keys.sh script using
the -wd argument.

I'd make a radio button control that selects which is to be used (and
then change it automatically when either CSR input mechanism is
modified).

I don't know about this ... are there any direct browser interfaces to
apache left?  We only need to change the apache cert for this if the
browser directly interfaces with apache using ssl.  I suspect that never
happens now that the voicemail portal is in sipXconfig.

We need to load the new certificate into Java for sure... Damian has
been working on that.
