Leverage the Hostname of the Server

Browse source 
Historic versions leveraged a format of "server_$UUID" to name of the VPN server certificate for X509 verification.  This seems very impersonal.  The new code pulls the existing hostname of the machines and appends the 16 character UUID.  The new format is $hostname_$UUID.

Example:
A machine named "Martian" with a UUID of 1234567890123456 would change from server_1234567890123456 to Martian_1234567890123456
