Philippe, Thanks allot of for the help! I have a few questions below.
This will do:
gensslcert --help
All Options are shown!
Gensslcert will generate a certificate for 2000 days (this should be long enough).
I've already generated a cert with openssl. Is gensslcert another way to do it or a way to test Apache?
Go to /etc/httpd (/etc/apache2) and there to
Which directory?? httpd? or apache2?? or both?? I am running SUSE 9.0 which I assume is using apache2.
ssl.crt/ ssl.key/ ssl.csr/
and rename all new certs (<SERVERNAME>server.*) to:
So in this example, if my server was 'homeserver' I would rename all the certs (cert.pem, key.pem & req.pem) as follows respectively: homeserver.crt, homeserver.key, & homeserver.csr and copy them to the corresponding directories? This is the boxes local name? or FQDN that the cert specifies?
/etc/httpd/ssl.crt/server.crt /etc/httpd/ssl.key/server.key /etc/httpd/ssl.csr/server.csr
Edit /etc/httpd/httpd.conf:
<VirtualHost _default_:443>
# General setup for the virtual host DocumentRoot "/srv/www/htdocs" ServerName <SERVER-FULL-NAME> ServerAdmin www@<SERVER-FULL-NAME> ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/error_log TransferLog /var/log/httpd/access_log
Edit /etc/sysconfig/apache (apache2)
Again, which one? apache or apache2??
HTTPD_START_TIMEOUT="5" HTTPD_SEC_MOD_SSL="yes"
Apache2:
APACHE_SERVER_FLAGS="-D SSL" APACHE_MODULES=" [...] ssl"
Next do a
I should know from your above answers, but this would depend upon which version of apache correct??? Thanka allot!!! Eric
SuSEconfig --module apache (or apache2)
rcapache restart
Check if the server comes up.
