Secure admin panel

  • I bought a certificate to use it to secure my admin panel.


    But which .pem file should I have use?


    Where I bought this, I have a lot of version:


    1.
    Download certificate in PEM (BASE64) format
    It is for IIS servers.
    You can upload the file into Apache server and set the SSLCertificate option.


    2.
    Download the complete certificate issuer chain in PEM (BASE64) format
    The file contains the complete issuer chain.
    You can upload the file into Apache server and set the SSLCertificate option.
    You MUST install the complete issuer chain on the server because the server directly serves the intermediate certificate issue items during a HTTPS connection.


    3.
    Download the intermediate certificate issuer chain in PEM (BASE64) format
    This is the certificate of the onlineSSL CA in case if only this part is needed.


    4.
    Download the root certificate in PEM (BASE64) format
    This is the root certificate of the complete chain in case if only this part is needed.
    You probably does not need it because it is supported by the most significant browsers and operation systems.


    I use i-MSCP 1.2.9
    Thank you for your help!

  • Ok, I figured out :)


    I must create a file with following content (merge files):
    .key file
    1 + 2 .pem file's content.


    Upload to /etc/imscp and done.
