  • file must include "----BEGIN CERTIFICATE---" i "----END CERTIFICATE----" lines,
  • save it as certificate.txt in /tmp calaogue (/tmp/certificate.txt),
  • make backup copy.

2. Install SSL certificate using getca (it is normally installed in <server_root>/bin):

getca myhostname </tmp/certificate.txt

<server_root>/ssl/certs/myhostname.cert localization.

<server_root>/bin/reload-server
