Hi, I am trying to generate a self-signed certificate for one of my virtual webservers. The problem is that no matter what I enter as CN when asked by the second command below, the certificate is not created for the hostname I want (admin.frakira.cz, but for lexus.frakira.cz, which is the machine's name). These are the commands I used (I followed the man page):
# openssl genrsa -out /etc/ssl/private/admin.frakira.cz.key 1024 # openssl req -new -key /etc/ssl/private/admin.frakira.cz.key -out /etc/ssl/private/admin.frakira.cz.csr # openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in /etc/ssl/private/admin.frakira.cz.csr -signkey /etc/ssl/private/admin.frakira.cz.key -out /etc/ssl/admin.frakira.cz.crt When I enter the last one, everything looks OK ... it outputs something about that the signature is ok and the DN, which is - as of this moment - exactly what I want. But when I try to open https://admin.frakira.cz, it complains about the certificate belonging to lexus.frakira.cz... (Yes, I did restarted apache). So, how do I arrange that the certificate belongs to admin.frakira.cz and is signed by lexus.frakira.cz? Please, reply directly to my email since the list seems to be rather slow in subscribing me that I could miss your reply for the list. Thank you in advance, Jakub Jermar ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
