    SSL Certs

    Posted on

    Hello,

    I am installing a RedHat Satellite Server 6.2 on a RHEL 7.3 server.
    The install went smoothly. However now I am trying to install SSL certificates. This is where I am having problems and cannot find any real documentation.

    What I did was as follows:
    I looked at the content of the file 05-foreman-ssl.conf located at /etc/httpd/conf.d.

    this had the following entries which I think are the ones I need to edit.

    ## SSL directives
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile "/etc/pki/katello/certs/katello-apache.crt"
    SSLCertificateKeyFile "/etc/pki/katello/private/katello-apache.key"
    SSLCertificateChainFile "/etc/pki/katello/certs/katello-default-ca.crt"
    SSLCACertificateFile "/etc/pki/katello/certs/katello-default-ca.crt"

    So in essence what I did was I copied in my SSL cert files for my company,
    ie the .key, .ca-bundle & .crt files and renamed the files as above.

    So I restart httpd and it is successful & I even rebooted. However when I launch the url I still receive the message that site is unsecure and get the yellow exclaimation point thru the lock.

    Could anyone offer any assstence as to where I am going wrong. I don't have any experience with Satellite Server tbh - this I believe is causing me problems now with trying to import via my manifest as I receive different error messages about that. However, I believe its due to my server trying to talk to RedHat on a unsecure connection as I am trying to get away from RedHat Classic.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Patrick
