Re: [SM-USERS] SSL with just login.php page

Hello,

You enable SSL in your webserver; add the SM includes to it (I'm using
Apache as a sample here). Now, when you access the SM webpage, you do so
using "https", not "http".

That's the part I'm confused on. What do I do to get that page to use ssl?

You mention no specs of your system, but on Linux, you would install
apache-ssl (which would give you a generic SSL cert, BTW),

I'm using redhat 8, which has Apache 2, and openssl. Using that, I was able
to generate a key and certificate.

and then add the INCLUDE parameter to the httpd.conf,
and start up apache-ssl.

Include what?

Sorry for the ignorance, I'm very new to ssl, and it's seeming a bit
overwhelming.

You should probably head on over to apache.org and see what you need to do to enable ssl for apache 2. If you have the ssl module for apache2 (which I believe it come with now) you should have an example in your httpd.conf file on how to enable it.
