RE: Orion SSL? How?
I spend couples of days to setup SSL. Because I am not family with security , the HOWTOs just say how to get a certification , but didn't say you should get a root certification first. I think the HOWTO should add: get root certification from https://www.thawte.com/servertest.txt save to root.cer run the keytool to generate keystore keytool -keystore keystore -keyalg "RSA" -import -file root.cer then generate your certification if you not use JDK 1.3 you should copy orion/jsse.jar to /jre/lib/ext , edit /jre/lib/security/ java.securit and add " security.provider.2=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider" -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Joseph B.

I still haven't set up the secure site part of it yet, but key generation was by far the hardest thing for me. What I ended up doing was using Windows to generate the keystore file, and then transferring the keystore file to Linux, where keytool was able to query it in proper form. As soon as I decide on a domain to set up as a secure site, I'll have a detailed HOWTO on orionsupport, as this issue has been critical and extremely frustrating for me.

Re: Orion SSL? How?
Keith, My experience is follow the instructions, and carefully read the instructions between the lines. Think hard when it doesn't work (there is an answer), and if you get really stuck, mail the list.
