| The following command will create you a new self-signed shared server certificate /usr/bin/openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key -out /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt -days 9000 -nodes answer the questions as desired.Note, you can also accomplish the same thing through DirectAdmin. To do this, login as "admin". Click "User Level". Use a domain created under "admin", if you don't have one, create a fake domain, it doesn't matter. Go to "SSL Certificates". Assuming "admin" is still set to use the server IP, and self-signed certificate created there will write to the same server.crt and server.key files as above. Also, if you create a certificate request in this same manor (through DA), be advised that it will generate the key and the csr (cert request) as the result. The key is *not* saved during this process (only for "admin" on the server IP). So make sure you copy the key and csr and save it somewhere safe. The original cert/key in the textarea are not touched when creating a csr. | ||
