I mean in the Common Name field It must be the Linux hostname ...

so how does that work? I want to use an alias (rt.domainname.com) for the SSL site rather than the actual hostname (server.domainname.com). I kno it can be done under Solaris. One of my predessors set that up here....I just haven't been able to duplicate it on this box

Well, I'm no expert... but it looks like it's saying you are using a CA cert rather than a cert signed by a CA. I don't see an entry for where the certificate is... for me, I have a line pointing at a cert for each virtual site (actually two, one for the private key, and one for the certificate).


So... good luck. if you want some help, I've got some experience with apache and ssl, just email me straight and I'll supply what advice I can.

Subject: Apache see cert as CA


I'm trying to get a SSL site up on Apache. My system is: Redhat 8 Apache 2.0.40 OpenSSL .0.9.6b

When I start Apache, It seems to think everything is OK. But when I try to
browse to a page, I just get the default Apache home page. If I look at
the SSL error log I get:
[Mon Dec 08 15:35:24 2003] [warn] RSA server certificate CommonName (CN)
`rt.domainname.com' does NOT match server name!?
[Mon Dec 08 15:36:14 2003] [warn] RSA server certificate is a CA
certificate (BasicConstraints: CA == TRUE !?)
I have worked thru the HOWTO's on Redhat creating a private key and
creating the certs
http://www.europe.redhat.com/documentation/HOWTO/SSL-RedHat-HOWTO -3.php3


My ssl.conf entry is:
