Hi.. I tried to enable SSL / create a SSL Cert in my Fedora 3 I used the following to create server key openssl genrsa -des3 4096 >/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key then I make your a self signet cerificte with openssl req -new -x509 -key /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key -out > /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt -days 365 -utf8 and then I ensure the following entries is in my ssl.conf SSLCertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key and restart my apache, when I surf to https://mywebsite , it state page not found. http://mywebsite is ok. and when I telnet port 443 to that server, it failed too. The error_log show [Wed Dec 28 16:08:58 2005] [notice] LDAP: Built with OpenLDAP LDAP SDK [Wed Dec 28 16:08:58 2005] [notice] LDAP: SSL support unavailable [Wed Dec 28 16:08:58 2005] [notice] Apache/2.0.53 (Fedora) configured -- resuming normal operations [Wed Dec 28 17:59:16 2005] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down [Wed Dec 28 17:59:17 2005] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/sbin/suexec) [Wed Dec 28 17:59:17 2005] [notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ... [Wed Dec 28 17:59:17 2005] [notice] Digest: done I also tried to create a CSR to submit to my windows domain Root CA to sign it http://windowsCA/certsrv/ Can anyone tell me whether windows domain CA and sign Linux CSR? I used the following command to create CSR of my Linux box openssl req -new -key /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key -out /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.csr and use the server.csr content to http://windowsCA/certsrv/ and the windows CA can sign it and return as certnew.cer. It rename it as server.crt and move it to my linux box's /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt and restart the apache. Not sure whether it is right , but I also can telnet 443 to my linux box and error message is the same as above __________________________________ Yahoo! for Good - Make a difference this year. http://brand.yahoo.com/cybergivingweek2005/
