You need to have a fully-qualified domain name set up for the certificate generation code to work. If you don't have a domain name of your own (i.e soon.co.uk) or one setup by your ISP, set it to localdomain (which would make your FQDN chopin.localdomain) If you want to remotely administer your server you want a real domain name though. -- Jaldhar H.
