Hi,



I am trying to set up OpenSSl without success.



So I setup

1)Setup your own CA (Certificate Authority)

2)Make a key and a certificate for the web server

3) Create directories and files for the secure web service

4) Edited ssl.conf



Basically, followed every step described in: [vanemery.com...]



The problem is when I do: '/httpd start' I get the following error.

Syntax error on line 28 of /usr/conf/ssl.conf:
Invalid command 'SSLRandomSeed', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration


Basically, the ssl module is not loaded into Apache. Therefore, I altered httpd.conf to include ssl:



I tried (one at the time):

LoadModule ssl_module /usr/lib/libssl.so
LoadModule mod_ssl /usr/lib/libssl.so

Does not work. What module do I need to include to get Apache work with SSL?


Any hints?

Thanks,
S
