Hexonet SSL Cert Creation
make sure openssl.cnf has some sensible defaults if you plan on issuing a few certs.
ssh to your box and generate the certificate:
DOMAIN=localhost.lu
openssl genrsa -out ${DOMAIN}.key 1024
openssl req -new -key ${DOMAIN}.key -out ${DOMAIN}.csr
openssl req -noout -text -in ${DOMAIN}.csr
localhost wiki
