What is this?
Hi, my name is Tom Lazar and I'm a Plone and Zope developer based in Berlin, Germany and this is my personal and professional (no big difference, really...) website.

6. Apache

the currently installed version: apache+mod_ssl-1.3.28+2.8.15 The Apache 1.3 (/usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl)

6.1. installing a certificate (for https)

goto /usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl and issue a make certificate TYPE=custom and then make install

if you haven't deleted the existing ssl.??? directories in /usr/local/etc/apache/ you will have to do that now and to install the newly created certificates do a cp -R /usr/ports/www/apache13-modssl/work/apache_1.3.28/conf/ssl* /usr/local/etc/apache/

It is advisable to generate new certs for each VirtualHost as this avoids trouble, should they move to another machine at some time. For this reason I've created a certs directory inside /usr/local/etc/apache/ with subdirectories for each site/cert.
