SSL and Servers
 

ok so i have to install a ssl on the server new client has.. have never done it.. is it hard to do.. will be in WHM.. any links or advice would b great thx!

Here ya go.

Just make sure that you have an IP to dedicate to it: you MUST have a dedicated IP for SSL (generally only thing on that machine, if you're wise), and the forward and reverse DNS must match the hostname you're registering.

hey thanks.. shouldn't take too long... i think :( LOL

Just make sure not to fuckup on the domain name...

If you come from http://www.domain.com and are going to https://domain.com, this is will give warnings of untrusted site.

What is it for ? a shopping cart? which one?

www.buygeminixxx.com

new client server

still reading atm

your site is www.buygeminixxx.com .

Just go thru the process, and see , when you get to the credit card data entering page, that you are still on http://www.buygeminixxx.com/whatever/.
Then you need a ssl for www.buygeminixxx.com

If you do go to http://buygeminixxx.com, then you need a ssl for buygeminixxx.com. In this case, in your config file of OsCommerce, you must indicate that your site is for http "buygeminixxx.com" and for https "buygeminixxx.com"

As for the certificate, use Cpanel for your domain. Generate a private key, and save it for future use.
Generate a Crt request. Use that in your ssl provider to obtain a certificate. They will send you the CRT and Cabundle .
In Cpanel, enter the private key, crt and cabundle. Click done.
That it is.
