If
you want to setup a secure site
(using SSL), you have two choices:
Use
our FREE generic site's certificate
Purchase
your own certificate
Use
our FREE generic site's certificate
The WebsiteOS "SSL Manager"
allows end users to use our Securewebexchange
generic SSL certificate.
Purchase
your own certificate
If you want your own certificate,
you can use the WebsiteOS SSL Manager
function to set up your private SSL
certificate.
Detailed information on how to use
SSL Manager to set up a private certificate
can be found in the
WebsiteOS online help.
The CSR (which will be generated by
SSL Manager) will have to be sent
to a Certificate Authority,
along with "Proof of Organizational
Name" and "Proof of right
to use Domain Name".
The "Proof of Organizational
Name" in most cases is a copy
of your company's registration
documents or certificate of incorporation.
Downloading the
certificate
After the Certificate Authority generates
the certificate, you will be notified
to download the
certificate. After the certificate
is downloaded, it has to be uploaded
to our servers via SSL Manager. Directories
for secure content
Once we receive the certificate, a
secure site will be setup for your
customer the next business day.
Secure content must be placed in the
"secure" directory located
in the site's home directory. CGI
scripts are to be placed in the "secure-cgi-bin"
directory.
