I want to protect DirectAdmin "ip:222" (so not a normal domain on Apache, but the DirectAdmin webserver at :2222) using an "intermediate root certificate". Could someone please tell me how to do that?

I finally gave up on installing a cert on DA. The big problem is that your email links for Squirrelmail and the other will fail to work properly. The user will get page not found under IE.

Something should really be done about this. Every control panel i have ever used loads the control panel using either a default cert on the server or one that the admin purchased. Problem is, links are broken under SSL in DA.

WHEN IS THIS GOING TO BE FIXED????????

What are you talking about?
This works fine. You have something configured incorrectly.
 
I wish that was the case but its not. On every DA server we have we experieinced the same nagging issue. I wrote about it in anothe thread and others have experienced the same issue.

Squirrelmail link under SSL returns page not found
Ubei under SSL returns page not found
PhpMyadmin link returns a page not found.

We contacted DA and they claimed it was an IE incompatability.

Its got nothing to do with the way its configured. Any idiot can install a SSL cert the problem being when its installed on DA those links fail to work under SSL.

DA offered no workaround or suggestion. NOTE: This does not occur under cPanel or Plesk. Its only a problem under DA and IE but it really needs to be addressed. Even if it an IE incompatabilty then a workaround should be offered.

I access both squirrelmail and uebimiau only through SSL, not through the control panel, but at:

https://servername.example.com/squirrelmail

and

https://servname.example.com/webmail

and both have always worked for me.

If you want a cert to work for both

https://servername.example.com:2222/

and

https://servername.example.com/squirrelmail

you must either install it twice, or set the path in DirectAdmin to use it where you put it for the squirrelmail to work.

That said, we've offered this as a service for several years and we've never had anyone complain, so we know it can be easily done.
