How to create a certificate request with 2048 Bit

NetMan and HAN allow to create a certificate request or self-signed certificates over the corresponding control in the Control Panel. However these requests have a fix length a 1024 Bit only.

A certificate request with 2048 Bit (or more) have to be created manually with Netman up to version 4.5.x and HAN 2.3.2. Please load the following ZIP file: myssl.zip

Unzip the arcive within a new subfolder myssl in ..\WebSrv\ssl

• The file server_req.cfg allows to define the FQDN of the server etc. (all entries ending with ..._default).
• Createreq.bat creates a new certificate request with 2048 Bit.
  The CSR file can be verified with e certicficate decoder, e.g. http://www.redkestrel.co.uk/cgi/decodeCSR.pl
• Makecert.bat creates a new self-signed certificate with 2048 Bit.

Copy the new server.key and server.crt into the ssl folder:

• Stop the web service.
• Rename the existing files.
• Copy the new files.
• Restart the web service.
