[users@httpd] SSL simple question

Hello,
I'm trying to have a secure web login implemented with php and mysql. If I
want to be the CA, I have to import to all the clients the certificate that
I created?
If I choose a CA like Verisign, I will have to import anything? I'd like to
have a secure SSL site without pay anything .... is it possible?
thanks

Re: [users@httpd] VirtualHost

Even with the latest version of Apache SSL service (i.e. on port 443) and name-based-virtual-hosting, do not co-exist. At least not in the Windows 2k environment we have. Since you can have either name-based hosting on port 80 - or an SSL server.... one solution is to establish 2 apache instances (one serving name-based hosting on port 80, the other serving SSL on port 443).

  Somehow I'm not managing to make my Apache 2.0.54 work with OpenSSL 
  0.9.8b in a Win 2003 Server 100% correctly.

  If I include the VirtualHost directive in the http.conf the Apache 
  doesn't start and Windows Events List gives me the following message:
  [warn] VirtualHost myDomain:443 overlaps with VirtualHost myDomain:443, 
  the first has precedence, perhaps you need a NameVirtualHost directive

  But if I use the NameVirtualHost directive (like "NameVirtualHost 
  myDomain" or "NameVirtualHost myDomain:443"), Apache keep on not 
  starting and the Events List gives me the message that "It's usually 
  allowed socket address only once" (I can't put the original message 
  since it's in Portuguse, so it's barely translated to English).

  But the interesting part is that, even not using a virtual host, Apache 
  starts normally and I can use https connection using the certificates 
  that I generated temporarily, eve if it's not specified in the 
  http.conf. I don't know if my Web Server is working in a proper way, so 
  I would like some help on it.

[users@httpd] VirtualHost

Posted by "Marcos R. Cardoso" <mc...@furb.br>.
Somehow I'm not managing to make my Apache 2.0.54 work with OpenSSL 
0.9.8b in a Win 2003 Server 100% correctly.

If I include the VirtualHost directive in the http.conf the Apache 
doesn't start and Windows Events List gives me the following message:
[warn] VirtualHost myDomain:443 overlaps with VirtualHost myDomain:443, 
the first has precedence, perhaps you need a NameVirtualHost directive

But if I use the NameVirtualHost directive (like "NameVirtualHost 
myDomain" or "NameVirtualHost myDomain:443"), Apache keep on not 
starting and the Events List gives me the message that "It's usually 
allowed socket address only once" (I can't put the original message 
since it's in Portuguse, so it's barely translated to English).

But the interesting part is that, even not using a virtual host, Apache 
starts normally and I can use https connection using the certificates 
that I generated temporarily, eve if it's not specified in the 
http.conf. I don't know if my Web Server is working in a proper way, so 
I would like some help on it.

Hey.  If you're working at a university, specifically, using a .edu domain,
you can use this service http://certs.ipsca.com/ to get them for free.  I
believe the root cert for this CA is included in many distributed browsers
like IE, etc., but you'll want to verify this.  That is, you won't need to
install their root cert in your clients.  Otherwise, look up one of the
tutorials the other fellow mentioned.  I use openssl.  I haven't tried it,
but you could distribute your root cert via a webpage to make it really
easy.  With IE, you just click a link and it will install itself I think.
Test that out to make sure.  In the end, though, being your own CA is best
for intranet types of apps, not internet - but that's your call.

Good luck,
JP

Yes it is possible, you would need to generate your own public and 
private certificates.  There are a ton of tutorials via google on this.
