SSL Certificates

I'm not going into specific details here. I use StartSSL certificates as they are free for private use.
Note: I have noticed that if you try going to your WEB server and you get a blank page, I found this occurs when the SSL certificate does not match the certificate name or SAN on the certificate.

Certificate path location.

/etc/pki/tls/certs/

openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout /etc/pki/tls/certs/sogo.key -out /etc/pki/tls/certs/sogo.csr

vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf

SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/2_mail.myserver.com.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/sogo.key
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/1_root_bundle.crt
