Apache-SSL and problems with SSL certificate

  Hi,

  Does anyone know how to generate SSL certificate valid longer than one
month ? I'm using Apache-ssl 1.2.6 and the tool for generating certificates
(ssl-certificate) has no options to extend the default validity time (one
month). Thanks in advance for any help.

Greetings,

1. Can't convert my netscape ssl certificate for use with Apache-SSL

I am trying to convert my netscape certificate to use with Apache-SSL.

I run the ns_convert program like so:

# /usr/local/ssl/bin/ns_convert /usr3/ns-home/https-443.204.174.113.10/config httpd
read RSA private key
Enter Private Key password:
writing RSA private key

Your Netscape ServerKey has been converted, but there is a missing element
in SSLeay which does not allow for immediate conversion of your
ServerCert.

conversion.
You'll receive a converted certificate in the mail shortly, which you
should save in httpd.cert and install using "getcert httpd"

Then I receive the converted cert and try to install it....

/usr/local/ssl/certs# ls -al
total 4
drwxr-xr-x   2 root     system       512 Mar 22 00:30 ./
drwxr-xr-x   8 root     system       512 Mar 18 23:34 ../
-rw-r--r--   1 root     system      1255 Mar 22 00:30 httpd.cert

/usr/local/ssl/certs# getcert httpd
unable to load certificate

This is the error I am getting.  Anyone have any ideas?

I am running Apache-SSL-US 1.0.3+1.1 on OSF1 V3.2 on an alpha.  My
netscape server runs fine with the certificate.

Help.
