| This is recommended only for advanced users, proceed with caution. |
This is an example of how to force an app access via https. For this example, AjaXplorer will be used but this will work with any app.
- Go to you config file for apache:
| bash code |
|---|
cd /etc/httpd/conf
|
- Now it is time to create a key and a crt. It will ask you a few questions, just make sure that the Common Name is the domain name:
| bash code |
|---|
openssl genrsa -out filename.key 1024 openssl req -new -key filename.key -x509 -days 1000 -out filename.crt
|
- Next open up httpd.conf with you favorite editor and add the following to the end:
| Text |
|---|
NameVirtualHost *:443
|
- Open terminal and do (needed by apache to make this work):
| bash code |
|---|
yum -y install mod_ssl
|
- Find the file that has ajaxplorer in its name:
| bash code |
|---|
cd /etc/httpd/conf.d/
|
- Edit it to like this:
| bash code |
|---|
'"`UNIQ--pre-00000005-QINU`"'
|
- Finaly create a file called 1026-ajaxplorerhttp.conf (note that the number may change for you) and put in this (also change things like the website name and etc):
| bash code |
|---|
'"`UNIQ--pre-00000007-QINU`"'
|
- Now you need to restart apache:
| bash code |
|---|
service httpd restart
|
And that's all, you now have 128 bit encryption for ajaxplorer.
