25.8. Creating a Self-Signed Certificate


You can create your own self-signed certificate. Note that a self-signed certificate does not provide the security guarantees of a CA-signed certificate. Refer to Section 25.5, “Types of Certificates” for more details about certificates.
To make your own self-signed certificate, first create a random key using the instructions provided in Section 25.6, “Generating a Key”. Once you have a key, make sure you are in the /usr/share/ssl/certs/ directory, and type the following command:
make testcert

The following output is shown and you are prompted for your passphrase (unless you generated a key without a passphrase):
umask 77 ; \
/usr/bin/openssl req -new -key -set_serial num /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key  
-x509 -days 365 -out /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt
Using configuration from /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase:

into your certificate request.

For some fields there will be a default value,

After you provide the correct information, a self-signed certificate is created in /etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt. Restart the secure server after generating the certificate with following the command:
