Install your Trustwave SSL certificate Install your Trustwave SSL certificate
Be sure to remove any temporary SSL certificates in /ServerRoot/ssl/certs if they exist. Run the following command:

# getca myservername

Replace myservername with the appropriate hostname. Now, open the .cer file from within the ZIP file that Trustwave e-mailed to you when your certificate was issued. You will need to open this file in a text editor and copy the entire text - including the top and bottom dashed lines. Paste this into the Stronghold prompt after running the above command.

When your entire certificate has pasted in, press CONTROL-D to tell Stronghold that you have pasted the full certificate. On some machines, there may be a different routine for telling Stronghold that you are finished pasting. Please refer to your server's documentation.

Install the intermediate certificates Install the intermediate certificates
To complete this step, download the Trustwave intermediate certificates into your server's ssl/certs/ directory. Then, find your httpd.conf file. This file is normally in a directory called conf. Find a line that begins with SSLCACertificateFile and alter it to appear like the following line:

SSLCACertificateFile ssl/certs/xroot.crt

If the line doesn't exist anywhere in the file, you can add it below your lines that start with SSLCertificateFile and SSLCertificateKeyFile.

Completing the installation Completing the installation
To finalize the installation, save the configuration file that you edited and then restart the server.
