Installing SSL

Installing an SSL cert is generally easy.


To so, you will need 2 pieces of information:

1 - CRT

2 - KEY

Note: Often times the client will give the CSR, CABUNDLE, and 12 other certs to go along with it... the only two pieces that are generally needed are the two above.



- To install, log in to WHM, click "Install an SSL certificate and set up the domain"

- Enter the domain name (secure host, eg. www.yourdomain.com, or secure.yourdomain.com or what ever the secure host name is).

(This should populate the top and middle box, along with the username and IP)

- Take the CRT and copy/paste/overwrite the contents of the TOP box

Then click "DO IT"

Once httpd is restarted, please check https://the.secure.domain.com and if it is working, then inform the cilent. If not, escalate to me.
