This is your real problem. Check your Group setting in your apache configuration. You probably just need to get your permissions and ownerships correct. Thanks very much for your response. Any idea what the Group setting needs to be in httpd.conf? this is how it looks now User nobody Group #-1 tia, dk -----Original Message----- From: Jorey Bump <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Aug 10, 2005 10:51 AM To: openssl-users@openssl.org Subject: Re: Can SSL work with IP Address instead of FQDN?

The only important thing is that the hostname used by clients to find your machine must match the Common Name in the certificate. So, if your other machines use https://intranet.localdomain/ to view web pages, the Common Name must be intranet.localdomain. The server itself doesn't even need to know it's being called intranet.localdomain (unless you're using name-based virtual hosts). > I've create the certificate keys as X.X.X.X.key > instead of www.example.com.key The name of the key doesn't matter, it's just used in path specifications (and of course, sometimes the OS gives the extension special meaning)> > I'm able to run the startssl command (see below) > It asks for the pass phrase, and says it logs in, but the > error log (list below too), shows some problems which > I don't understand. > > Any ideas?
