I am trying to generate the re-generate the expired keys in this article.

I followed the steps in this link, but the certificates did not work.

The required certificates are as follows:

client.pem
dh1024.pem
root.pem
server.pem

In my understanding dh is a diffie-hellman key. root.pem is used to sign client and server certificates. Anybody know's a good tutorial on generating the keys in the above manner so I can regenerate they keys for the example in this article.

  • Keys don't expire. Certificates expire. You don't have to regenerate keys, you just have to re-sign the certificate. "The certificates did not work" is not a problem description. – user207421 Oct 03 '14 at 10:05
  • Currently I don't have the keys. Only the .pem files, so I think I will have to re-generate the keys too? – user340 Oct 03 '14 at 11:15
  • If you don't have the keys you have nothing at all. You'll have to start again. – user207421 Oct 03 '14 at 11:46
  • I followed the tutorial here - http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~zmiller/ca-howto/ but was not able to get certificates working. What different commands should I issue to get the correct certificates? – user340 Oct 03 '14 at 12:47
