A weird question, but when contacting my internet provider to purchase an
SSL certificate through them, they asked whether it should be for
Apache mod_ssl or for Apache + openssl.
But as far as I can see from the apache documentation and output eg from
phpinfo, apache is linked against openssl and mod_ssl is loaded (and
running ldd on mod_ssl.so shows me, that that too is linked to the
openssl libraries, as I expected)
So, what does the question from my provider mean, and how can I figure
out which type of SSL my server needs?
Maybe the 3 first link can help you to make the diff between both.
Do you know, You cangenerate self signed certificate yourself ?
Their is lot of howto on the web.
Yes - and every time I visit his https website I'll get a notification
that the certificate isn't from a recognized authority ... on more than
one occasion that has resulted in me not spending money at a vendors
website.
