To generate a certificate for "hostname" signed with our CA key:
openssl genrsa -out /etc/ssl/private/hostname.key 1024
openssl req -new -key /etc/ssl/private/hostname.key -out /etc/ssl/antiflux/hostname.csr
cd /etc/ssl/antiflux
make sign
mv hostname.cert /etc/ssl/certs/hostname.crt
Note: "make sign" will delete the CSR, so make a copy ahead of time if you're going to want it later.
Stop and start any services using the certificate. Apache doesn't seem to load the new cert if it's simply restarted - you have to actually stop and start it.
apachectl stop
apachectl start
