Question about SSL cert & VIClient

I updated the SSL cert (rui.crt, rui.key and rui.pfx) on one of the vCenters I support.

When a user logs on with:

   ip Address/ name:   shortname    correct Cert is displayed

 

   or

   ip Address/name:  localhost         default Cert is displayed

   or

   ip Address/name: fullyqualifieddomainname   default Cert is displayed

Yet I have moved the default rui.crt, rui.key and rui.pfx to another Folder and have also renamed the files.

Can someone explain why we see the default Cert and not get an error?  Also why we would get the default Cert with the fullyqualifieddomainname?

Appreciating any insights.
