Apache with mod_ssl Enabled
- If required follow the OpenSSL Generating a Private Key procedure.
- If required follow the OpenSSL Generating a Certificate Signing Request procedure.
- The private key and CSR files will be used to generate the self-signed certificate.
- openssl x509 -req -days <# number of days> -in <csr_name>.csr -signkey <key_name>.key -out <crt_name>.crt
- Enter the information as required by the prompts.
- Verify the checksum of the key matches the checksum CSR and the self-signed certificate.
- openssl x509 -noout -modulus -in <crt_name>.crt | openssl md5
