I followed these instructions a while back and they worked for me. http://www.apache-ssl.org/
<snip> 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 Matt -- > -----Original Message----- > From: Miranda, Joel Louie M [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, 3 July 2003 11:54 AM > To: 'Paul C.
