To generate a certificate for "hostname" signed with our CA key:

  1. openssl genrsa -out /etc/ssl/private/hostname.key 1024
  2. openssl req -new -key /etc/ssl/private/log.antiflux.org.key -out /etc/ssl/antiflux/hostname.csr
  3. cd /etc/ssl/private
  4. make sign
  5. mv hostname.cert /etc/ssl/certs/hostname.crt

Note: "make sign" will delete the CSR, so make a copy ahead of time if you're going to want it later.
