Hello!
To be honest I know little to nothing about working
with SSL. I am trying to learn so please be patient with me (if you can suggest
any good reading material I would greatly appreciate it). I have been reading
some of the info provided at the openssl website. Be since I am a newbie a lot
is over my head. So please excuse me if this is a stupid
question......
My hosting provider says they have openssl
installed on the Apache server, yet we have to pay for a certificate from
another company. Could any please explain to me why they have their customers do
this?? Why the third party? I thought you could easily generate a certificate
yourself with this program. I have shell access, is there anyway around paying
someone else to make me a certificate?? I am a hands on person and would prefer
to learn how to do it myself.
Thanks,
Webdeva |
