Re: where is sign.sh from mod_ssl ???

2003-07-25 Thread Bill Barker
It seems that it is only distributed with the Apache-1.3.x version of
mod_ssl.

In my experience, it is usually worth the trouble in the long run to do a
full setup for a CA (i.e. what 'openssl ca ...' expects) if you need to
issue your own certs.

 Hi.
 The HOWTO instructions on
 http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/ssl/ssl_fag.html said I need a
 sign.sh script for signing server.csr. It is supposed to be
 distributed with mod_ssl.
 Mabe I should download and unpack the latest mod_ssl and look for it
 again...

A good HOWTO about Certificate Management and creating your own CA
is on http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/SSL-Certificates-HOWTO/c118.html
Another one is here: http://www.corserv.com/freebsd/apache-ssl-howto.html
(not so detailed, but not that good either)

Hi.
Thanks, I got EngelSchall's sign.sh. I am going through exactly those
doco as we speak, I think the problem with the documentation is that
they refer to dfferent versions than mine. 
On my default RH7.1 Linux installation, I do not have /usr/local/ssl or
/etc/ssl/openssl.conf, yet it comes well equipped with
/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt ad /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key. 
On the other hand, the Apache2 httpd.conf uses an Include conf/ssl.conf
which doesn't look like the instructions on the documentation. I am so
confused, I need a beer.
S, I won't be finishing the task this week.

Re: where is sign.sh from mod_ssl ???

2003-07-25 Thread Simon Pabst
I don't know about Redhat's openssl installation,
but propably it spreads over several directories.
However there should be an openssl.conf somewhere,
maybe its in /etc/openssl.conf or /usr/local/openssl/openssl.conf
If you can't find it, this might help:
find /etc -name openssl.conf
or
find /usr -name openssl.conf
Installing openssl from source would also help getting a
clean (and more secure) openssl installation with everything in one directory.
And don't mix up Apache2 ssl.conf with openssl.conf, they've got nothing to 
do with each other.
In Apache 1 all the SSL stuff was in httpd.conf, in Apache 2 they just put 
that into conf/ssl.conf.
