How would I go about creating a cert for my personal server and creating a secure server.  Does anyone know what the steps would be for this.  I would like to keep it on my server, that way I can keep down costs of paying for a dedicated server online, and I have 3 servers sitting in my house that I dont use, and would like to put them to use.  I have just started using Apache, so not sure as to what it is about yet.  I am using a Win 2000 Server machine, Apache 2.2, MySQL 5 and PHP 5.

 

Thanks in advance.

I would go back to Apache 2.0 with OpenSSL, then use OpenSSL to generate a self signed cert, you can google that.  Heaps of tuts out there.

 

Then you just need to configure Apache to listen on a specific IP address, the IP address that you want the SSL part of it to listen to.  Remember that you must have a dedicated IP address per SSL site.  Sorry I'm not that through right now.  Just a bit busy, but will post up something better soon!  PM me if you need further help.

 

Oh and once you configure IP addresses, just configure Virtual Host for them.
