The certificate signing request (CSR) generated by the command above contains
some personal (or corporate) information and its public key.
Step 2: Submit CSR to the CA.
The next step is to submit the CSR and some personal data to the CA. This service
can be requested by accessing the CA Web site and is not free. There is a list of CAs at
the following URL
pki-page.org
The request will be analyzed by the CA, for policy approval and to be signed.
Step 3: Upon receipt, install certificate.
After the approval, the CA will send a certificate file to the origin, which we will call
Cert.cer, for example purposes. The certificate is also stored on a directory server.
The certificate must be installed in the GoAhead Web server, by following these
instructions:
Step A: Open a Black Box Terminal Server session and do the login.
Step B: Join the certificate with the private key into the file /web/server.pem.
#cat Cert.cer private.key > /web/server.pem
Step C: Copy the certificate to the file /web/cert.pem.
#cp Cert.cer /web/cert.pem
Step D: Include the files /web/server.pem and /web/cert.pem in /etc/config_files.
