→Generate your own certificates
== Generate your own certificates ==
'''NOTE:''' Leaving defaults will not make your server less secure. Make sure that you change "asecretpassword" in the commands below to something else. Otherwise any commands which don't have "asecretpassword" in it can be copied and pasted. This has to do with the challenge password for the private key. If you don't understand what I mean then you should read about [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public-key_cryptography public-key cryptography] which is essentially what SSL uses.
As of Chrome version 58, the Chrome browser requires SSL certificates to use SAN (Subject Alternative Name) and has removed Common Name (CN). Using a CN will produce an error within the Security Overview section of the certificate, telling the user that the SAN is missing. A new method of creating the certificate is required.
