Hello wonderful people.
I'm trying to use the ssltest program to get some typical server
authentication (against a self signed certificate) to work. Whatever I
try I just can't seem to get it right, could someone please indicate
which steps should be followed to achieve this ? It feels like it should
be quite a simple operation.
This is what I tried:
> openssl genrsa -out ~/privkey.pem 2048
> openssl req -new -x509 -key ~/privkey.pem -out ~/mycert.pem -days
1095 -config openssl.cnf
openssl.cnf is the "standard" config file in the apps directory,
containing the lines:
dir = ./demoCA # Where everything is kept
certificate = $dir/cacert.pem # The CA certificate
> ssltest -server_auth -cert ~/mycert.pem -CAfile ../apps/demoCA/cacert.pem
Ending up with this output:
Available compression methods:
NONE
2988:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start
line:pem_lib.c:644:Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY
2988:error:140B0009:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file:PEM
lib:ssl_rsa.c:669:
I'm probably missing something obvious, but my brain is currently weak
so I'd like to temporarily borrow one of yours on this matter.
Thank you for your time,
