You don't need the DH Parameters part. You just need the public cert and the (unencrypted) private key. Make sure when you create your cert that you specify -nodes so the private key isn't encrypted and make -keyout and -out be the same file. That's all you need. openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -nodes -keyout courier.pem -out courier.pem Jeff Jansen ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
