Thanks, I got it to work finally, created the cert via: openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -config /usr/lib/ssl/openssl.cnf \ -out /usr/cyrus/cyrus.pem -keyout /usr/cyrus/cyrus.pem
then added these lines to my imapd.conf file: tls_ca_path: /usr/cyrus tls_ca_file: /usr/cyrus/cyrus.pem tls_cert_file: /usr/cyrus/cyrus.pem tls_key_file: /usr/cyrus/cyrus.pem and boom, it's working this way... now i have another question but I'll put that in another topic.. thanks all, good group here Jeff > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 11:14 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: cyrus and SSL/stunnel > > > On Thu, 7 Mar 2002, Jeff Bert wrote: > > > darnit, now you've got my curiosity peeked again ;) > > > > my "man imapd.conf" has no information about the tls_key_file.... > > stuff. > > > > any recommendations on type of cert/key to make?
