Trying to create a self signed Certificate to use for my DA login. After entering my company info the script stops.:

/usr/bin/openssl req -x509 -sha256 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cakey.pem -out /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cacert.pem -days 9000 -nodes

Any ideas?
 
Hi Alex,
I am trying to access DirectAdmin securely (https://).

https://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=15

Creating the self-signed script appears to be failing:

/usr/bin/openssl req -x509 -sha256 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cakey.pem -out /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cacert.pem -days 9000 -nodes

Any ideas? Can I use letsencrypt for my DiectAdmin connection?

Thanks!
 
You can use Let's Encrypt to issue free and trusted certs for any domain on your server, it can be used to secure access to directadmin too.
