| For an SSL encrypted web server you will need a few things. Depending on your install you may or may not have OpenSSL and mod_ssl, Apache's interface to OpenSSL.
| | Page was moved here: http://wiki.kolmisoft.com/index.php/Setting_up_https_secure_connection |
| | |
| yum -y install mod_ssl openssl
| |
| | |
| Generate private key
| |
| openssl genrsa -out ca.key 1024
| |
| | |
| Generate CSR
| |
| openssl req -new -key ca.key -out ca.csr
| |
| | |
| Generate Self Signed Key
| |
| openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in ca.csr -signkey ca.key -out ca.crt
| |
| | |
| Move the files to the correct locations
| |
| mv ca.crt /etc/pki/tls/certs
| |
| mv ca.key /etc/pki/tls/private/ca.key
| |
| mv ca.csr /etc/pki/tls/private/ca.csr
| |
| | |
| Then we need to update the Apache SSL configuration file. Change the paths to match where the Key file is stored. If you've used the method above it will be.
| |
| | |
| SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca.crt
| |
| | |
| Then set the correct path for the Certificate Key File a few lines below. If you've followed the instructions above it is:
| |
| SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/private/ca.key
| |
| | |
| Quit and save the file and then restart Apache
| |
| /etc/init.d/httpd restart
