How do I generate a CSR key?

  • Hi there, I'm still kind of a huge noob to this. I bought TrustSafePro SSL and it is requesting that I enter a CSR key. How do I go about generating one so I can incorporate a different SSL certificate?


    Thanks in advance!

    My vserver debian with froxlor

    Thanks

  • Hay,

    openssl req -new -out csr -key rsakey

    the file is called "csr" and nothing else :) that maybe confuses you.


    openssl req -new -out /home/myuser/keyfile.csr -key rsakey

    would generate a file keyfile.csr in the /home/myuser/ directory.

    If not: there was an error message for sure... please post.

    CU, Peter
