Public bug reported:

Looking at epoptes' postinst script, the SSL certificate generated
expires after 5 years, this might end up being a problem for Edubuntu
where we'll have 5 years support, then people may potentially upgrade to
the next release and end up using the certificate for way more than 5
years.

I'd suggest going with something like 14600 (roughly 40 years) which
should ensure the machine will be replaced before the certificate
expires.
