John (Thompson)... This IHS Apache is definitely a cracked Apache with some odd configuration SSL setup in particular is completely different.
John (Hester), I can see the cert in the key file (through the gsk7cmd command) but with the name api.client.com it cannot be found. I even recreated the cert as "api" (without dots) because I found a page that said that the dots could be causing problems, but still no love. It seems I've done everything correctly but still it just can't find a combination that works. I'm wondering if the problem here is the fact that it's a self-signed cert without a chain? Are you using a self-signed cert here? Do you have other certs in your key file that may represent a chain for the self-signed cert? Thank you gentlemen for the insight. Most appreciated. -K On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 3:09 PM, John Hester <jhes...@momtex.com> wrote: > It sounds like you've done all you need to for basic IHS SSL > functionality.
