I all! Maybe I'm too much novice on this, but I want to create a certificate for each virtual host on my apache server (3 virtual hosts). So i created my own CA, then one for each virtual host, like this:
Created the private CA and certificate: openssl genrsa -out SSC_CA.key 1024 openssl req -new -key SSC_CA.key -out SSC_CA.csr (then i have entered country, organization name, etc, with no passphrase) openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in SSC_CA.csr -out SSC_CA.crt -signkey SSC_CA.key Created for each server using the private CA: openssl genrsa -out intra01.key 1024 openssl req -new -key intra01.key -out intra01.csr (then i have entered country, organization name, etc, with no passphrase) openssl ca -in intra01.csr -cert SSC_CA.crt -keyfile SSC_CA.key -out intra01.crt openssl genrsa -out ssc01.key 1024 openssl req -new -key ssc01.key -out ssc01.csr (then i have entered country, organization name, etc, with no passphrase) openssl ca -in ssc01.csr -cert SSC_CA.crt -keyfile SSC_CA.key -out ssc01.crt openssl genrsa -out sec01.key 1024 openssl req -new -key sec01.key -out sec01.csr (then i have entered country, organization name, etc, with no passphrase) openssl ca -in sec01.csr -cert SSC_CA.crt -keyfile SSC_CA.key -out sec01.crt Then I configured each virtualhost on ssl.cnf with this lines (i copy only this ones for not a very long e-mail): SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/ssl/SSCCA/intra01.crt SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/ssl/SSCCA/intra01.key SSLCACertificateFile /usr/local/ssl/SSCCA/SSC_CA.crt It appears to be all ok, the appache starts with no problem, but when i try to view the webpages firefox first tell me about the unknow certificate, i add the exception, ok, then after adding the exception i get this error: An error occurred during a connection to ssc01.dei.uc.pt. SSL peer was unable to negotiate an acceptable set of security parameters. (Error code: ssl_error_handshake_failure_alert) Please tell me, what i have done wrong? Is there anything that I fairly clear and I should understand in SSL and Certificates? Thank you in advance!
