 ssl mod_ssl





from http://www.apache-ssl.org/#FAQ



removing passphrase:

	openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.pem



Now I've got my server installed, how do I create a test certificate?



Step one - create the key and request:





  openssl req -new > new.cert.csr



Step two - remove the passphrase from the key (optional):



  openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -out new.cert.key



Step three - convert request into signed cert:



   openssl x509 -in new.cert.csr -out new.cert.cert -req -signkey new.cert.key -days 365



The Apache-SSL directives that you need to use the resulting cert are:



  SSLCertificateFile /path/to/certs/new.cert.cert

  SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/certs/new.cert.key



SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt

SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key
