232 Part II . Running the Show Now that you re familiar with the basic components, take a look at the tools used to create SSL certificates: # cd /etc/httpd/conf # make This makefile allows you to create: o public/private key pairs o SSL certificate signing requests (CSRs) o self-signed SSL test certificates To create a key pair, run make SOMETHING.key . To create a CSR, run make SOMETHING.csr . To create a test certificate, run make SOMETHING.crt . To create a key and a test certificate in one file, run make SOMETHING.pem . To create a key for use with Apache, run make genkey . To create a CSR for use with Apache, run make certreq . To create a test certificate for use with Apache, run make testcert . Examples: make server.key make server.csr make server.crt make stunnel.pem make genkey make certreq make testcert The make command utilizes the Makefile to create SSL certificates. Without any arguments the make command simply prints the information listed above. The following defines each argument you can give to make: . make server.key Creates generic public/private key pairs. . make server.csr Generates a generic SSL certificate service request. . make server.crt Generates a generic SSL test certificate. . make stunnel.pem Generates a generic SSL test certificate, but puts the private key in the same file as the SSL test certificate. . make genkey Same as make server.key except it places the key in the ssl.key directory. . make certreq Same as make server.csr except it places the certificate service request in the ssl.csr directory. . make testcert Same as make server.crt except it places the test certificate in the ssl.crt directory. Using Third-Party Certificate Signers In the real world, I know who you are because I recognize your face, your voice, and your mannerisms. On the Internet, I cannot see these things and must rely on a
