RE: FN-FORUM Setting up a secure site

AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHH damn HTL emails, and why does Outlook 2000
assume I want to answer in BLUE text, can anyone tell me how I can stop
Outlook doing that?
Anyway, SSL.
All a digital cert does is enable a VirtualHost to use encrypted transfer.
So once you have your cert and your key you just have to add some extra
Directives to tell Apache (assuming you are using Apache) where the file is
that holds the certificate:
SSLCertificateFile /path/to/cert
And where the key is:
SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/key
And:
SSLEngine on
to tell it to use SSL, you also need to tell it to listen on Port 443, so an
example configuration would be:
Listen 10.9.8.7:80
Listen 10.9.8.7:443
##
## SSL Virtual Host Context
##
DocumentRoot /home/httpd/docs
ServerName certificate.domain.com
ServerAdmin [EMAIL REMOVED]
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /path/to/cert
SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/key
