Re: Quick Tips on SSL

[Dale Bronk]

I followed your instructions, but get the following error from Thawte after choosing "Test SSL Chained CA Cert" and clicking Generate Test Certificate.  Any help would be appreciated.   We accept two broad forms of CSR.  The preferable one is a BASE64 encoded PKCS#10 Certificate Signing Request.  The other format is the PEM Message format generated by early Domino, ICSS and WebSite Pro 1.x web servers.   I have no clue what to do now.   Dale ----- Original Message ----- From: Steven Punte To: Orion-Interest Sent: Friday, July 21, 2000 2:31 PM Subject: Quick Tips on SSL This is quick tip list for getting SSL working on Orion: 1)    Fairly good instructions at http://www.orionsupport.com/?key=ssl-howto   2)    Install JDK1.3 for the purpose of generating you keystone         and other associated files.  It has the RSA algorithm         in it.  You don't have to run the server with it.   3)    Build the associated SSL files on NT.   4)    Be sure to check "Test SSL Chained CA Cert" at the Thwart step.   5)    On the first step, when the keystone tool asks for you First         and Last name DON'T DO THIS!!!!!!!  Instead give the         URL of the site you are attempting to secure!  DAAA!   6)    DON'T supply a second password.  There is an option         to do so called something like <keygen>.   Just hit         return here.          Now, can anyone post a summary of the steps to get a REAL certificate?       Hmm.  This is starting to feel like open-source software!  :-()     STeve Punte e-Business Software Architect Technologent Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
