Hi everyone,
I'm a new apache 1.3.12 + mod_ssl user (windows NT version, SP5)
I've tried to generate a new server certificate using the command line 
utility openssl, with the following steps:

1) key generation
openssl genrsa -des3 -rand 
c:\i386\msvbvm60.dll:c:\i386\msvbvm50.dll:c:\i386\win32k.sys:c:\i386\she
ll32.dll:c:\mts20.hlp -out myhost.mydomain.com.key 1024

2) Certificate Signing Request generation
openssl req -new -key myhost.mydomain.com.key -out 
myserver.mydomain.com.csr -config openssl.cnf

3) generate temporary self-signed certificate ***
openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in myhost.mydomain.com.csr -signkey 
myhost.mydomain.com.key -out myhost.mydomain.com.crt

4) copied all files to the respective dirs (ssl.key, ssl.csr, ssl.crt) 
and changed httpd.conf in the virtualhost SSL section

5) submitted the .csr to www.thawte.com to get a temporary signed 
certificate: I've saved it as myhost.mydomain.com.crt (I put it in place 
of the temporary, self-signed .crt file)

Starting apache and trying to load https://localhost apache hangs and 
nothing happens.

Can someone help me ?

Thank you in advance
Roberto Borghesi
