Hi there,
This seems to be a problem that has come up for some other users of moodle and I've posted a question here http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=145250 but I think maybe mahara users would have more idea of how to fix this problem?

When browsing to any settings in Site Administration > Networking section I get this error:
New public key has been generated. It expires 1970/01/01 12:00:00

Any clues how I could resolve this problem as we can't use mahara / migrate moodle unitl this works...

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hmm I had an epiphany at 4am this morning that maybe this could have something to do with the 'live backup' we did.. We copied the mysql data directory while the live site was still running and all other moodle functions seem to work but could this mean the certificate didn't get copied / correctly?

If this could be the cause how would I take a correct copy or generate a new cert properly?

Just for completeness, I followed the link to the moodle forums and found that someone had posted a solution here; http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=110343
