(CSR Generation Procedures) |

 |
You can generate an SSL certificate, consisting of an RSA private key and certificate,
for any domain using WebHost Manager. This will allow viewers of an SSL site
to verify the identity of the web site by its public key.
Click on the Generate an SSL certificate
and Signing Request link in the SSL/TLS menu.
Enter the email address to send the certificate
to in the 'Email Address the Cert will be sent to field'.
Enter the domain name that the domain is
being created for in the 'Host to make cert for field'.
| If you are ordering a Wildcard Certificate,
the Common Name field must be in the format of: *
. yourdomain . com |
Enter the administration
details of the certificate in the Country, State, City, Company Name, Company
Division, and Email fields.
Enter the password for the certificate in the
Password field.
| Should you choose to enter and use a
Private Key password, you will need to make sure that you
save that password in a secure place. If you ever need
to reinstall your certificate for any reason, you will
be required to enter that password. If you forget the password
and it is past 30 days from your purchase date, then you
will be required to purchase a new certificate. An ounce
of prevention will prevent this from happening. |
Click 'Create'
| Backup the private key, as there is
no means to recover it should it be lost. The private key
is used as input in the command to generate a Certificate
Signing Request (CSR). EBIZID will reissue certificates
no more than 30 days from the time of purchase. If you
do not backup your key and your server fails or other problems
occur after the 30 days, you will then be required to purchase
a new certificate. An ounce of prevention is all that is
required to prevent this from happening. |

-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST----- 
When sending your CSR to EBIZID, you
MUST copy and paste the entire CSR Request, including the
beginning and ending lines as shown below.
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
Failure to do so will result in you having to resend your
CSR in the correct format to EBIZID which will cause a
prolonged delay in processing your order. |
