RDS - The certificate is not valid for this usage

An interesting blog post by RDS MVP Kristen Griffen. I've never run into this myself, but aparently a SSL certificate that you use for RDS can have a certificate chain that is too long, causing the following error:

The certificate is not valid for this usage




If you run into this, have your CA re-issue a certificate with a shorter chain.
