Old machine Tomcat+SSL, new machine Apache+SSL - new certificates needed?

Post by Skip Montana » Thu, 08 May 2003 23:11:51



A new customer of ours uses Tomcat+SSL on their current machine.
I've set up a new machine for them using Apache+SSL, however I'm
unclear about migrating certificates.  Is that possible or do I have to
go back to the CA and generate a new set?  I don't see anything like
server.crt and server.key in their Tomcat+SSL setup.  It has .csr and
.cer files.

Thx,

Skip Montanaro

Java handles this with a concept called keystores.

Look at the server.xml file on the old server, there you should find
a filename and password for the key store. Then, using "keytool"
command, export the keys and certificates out of the keystore.

1. New apache install and SSL test certificate

Hello,

I just installed apache 1.3.22 advanced extranet server...I got the virtual
server up and running on port 443 with ssl...The problem is I can't find
where apache stores its keys...I think I can create and self certify the
needed keys, but how do I get apache to use my keys instead of the test
certificate that installs by default...Now that I think about I could use a
GOOD primer on creating and certifying ssl keys, but mostly I need to know
how to get them working with apache...BTW i'm using apache with mod_ssl and
it's openssl 0.9.6c-2mdk

Thank you in advance,
Jim
