When you reinstall, it leaves your old private key/certificate in place intentionally (it would suck to have them be overwritten! :). If you want to delete them and start over, you have to do it yourself. Delete the ssl.* subdirectories of your Apache conf directory and redo the entire generate-private-key-then-get-certificate process from scratch. Of course you realize that if you already bought a real certificate from a CA to go with your old private key that you're going to have to get a new one (and different CA's have different reissue policies). --Cliff ______________________________________________________________________ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
