This is the ssl.csr/ directory of Apache/mod_ssl
where PEM-encoded X.509 Certificate Signing Requests for SSL are stored.
Per default the following file is provided:
o server.csr:
This is the server certificate signing request for Apache/mod_ssl
corresponding to the ../ssl.crt/server.crt file. Per default this is a
dummy file, but may be overwritten by the `make certificate' target under
built-time. Then it contains the CSR which you can send to a public
Certification Authority (CA) for requesting a real signed certificate
(which then can replace the ../ssl.crt/server.crt file).
You can also use this directory for temporarily storing CSRs from within your
(CGI-) scripts when you want to perform client authentication with your own
CA instance.
You can view the ingredients of a particular CSR file in plain text
by running the command:
$ openssl req -noout -text -in <name>.csr
