I am not trying to set up client auth on Apache, just install a new SSL
certificate.

The instructions[1] for the new certificate says to install and intermediate
certificate:

SSLCACertificateFile /usr/local/ssl/crt/intermediate.crt

I've done that, confirmed the paths and the certificate, but apache reports:

[error] Unable to configure verify locations for client authentication


If I comment out that directive in httpd.conf the server starts fine and the
site works ok for some newer browsers but older browsers (including FF3.6.8)
report that the CA is unknown.

Searching Google for that error message I find mostly people trying to set
up client auth, which I'm not trying to do.

For example:
http://www.mail-archive.com/modssl-us...@modssl.org/msg17547.html, but again
that user was trying to set up client auth, plus SSLCADNRequestFile is not a
known config setting in my environment.


Running an old version of Apache, unfortunately:

 Apache/2.0.54 (Debian GNU/Linux) mod_ssl/2.0.54 OpenSSL/0.9.7e

Any ideas?

Thanks,
