It's simple: most peoples (like me :-) will real all this, will use info and
will NOT write to the list. Few peoples will not read and will write to the
list. The end result will look like noone ever try to read something :-))

Sorry, but it's really nasty when people don't want to _READ_!
The gid-mkcert.sh script looks like:

|  :
| ##  ssleay ... get it from ftp://ftp.psy.uq.oz.au/pub/Crypto/SSL/
| ##  ca-fix ... get it from http://www.drh-consultancy.demon.co.uk/ca-fix.html
| ##  pkcs12 ... get it from http://www.drh-consultancy.demon.co.uk/pkcs12faq.html
| ##
| 
| #   parameters
| ssleay="/sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/ssleay"
| cafix="/sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/ca-fix"
| pkcs12="/sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/pkcs12"
| sslcrtdir="."
| sslcsrdir="."
| sslkeydir="."
|  :

In other words: FRIENDS, THE URLS ARE GIVEN JUST FOUR LINES AWAY FROM THE LINE
YOU'RE EDITING! Hmmm... I'm really wondering why I always write down such a
lot of details when people don't read it...

So, please walk to the given URLs, fetch the tools, install it somewhere and
edit the variables to reflect the used installation paths.

Creating a server certificate

1999-03-11 Thread Gilles L. Chong Hok Yuen

Hi,
https is working!!! Actually both http n https are working. Now im
passing to the stage of creating a server certificate with the mod-ssl
module.
>From the README.GlobalID file, there are 5 steps.
The 1st step being:  1. You have to create a standard CA certificate
Suppose to use the shell script gid-mkcert.sh in the
/mod_ssl-2.2.3-1.3.4/pkg.contrib directory. However, running it yields
gid-mkcert.sh: /sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/ssleay: not found
mkgid.sh:Error: Failed to generate RSA private key

Now, i dont even have a sw directory on my server! Running a find /
-name ssleay -print yields
/usr/local/ssl/bin/ssleay
/opt/apache/SSLeay-0.9.0b/apps/ssleay

In the gid-mkcert.sh file, i can see
ssleay="/sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/ssleay" - i guess can be replaced by
/opt/apache/SSLeay-0.9.0b/apps/ssleay
cafix="/sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/ca-fix"
pkcs12="/sw/pkg/ssleay/bin/pkcs12"
Running a find / -name ca-fix (and pkcs12) -print yields nothing. I.e
those 2 files cannot be found on my server!!! And i have a feeling tt
those 2 files are quite important! :0
