Looking for Advice on Using a Custom SSL in KeyHelp

[Jackzz]

Hello Everyone,

I'm now in the process of configuring KeyHelp for the first time on a server. Everything has gone OK so far, however I've run into a little bit of a snag with setting up a personalised SSL certificate.

I've used Let's Encrypt with KeyHelp to successfully establish SSL, but I now need to use a bespoke SSL certificate that was supplied by a third-party CA. While I am aware of the general steps involved in installing SSL on conventional web servers, I am unsure of the optimal approaches for incorporating this into KeyHelp.

I've taken the following actions thus far:

• My provider has sent me the CA bundle and the SSL certificate.

• I used KeyHelp's SSL section to upload both the private key and the certificate.

• I'm not sure, though, how to handle the CA bundle correctly or if any other configurations are needed.

Even after reading over some of the documentation and earlier forum posts, I'm still not entirely sure what the intricacies are. Does KeyHelp take care of this automatically, or is there a particular directory where the CA bundle needs to be saved?

Are there any typical problems or hazards that I should be aware of while utilising KeyHelp with a bespoke SSL? I would be grateful for any advice or detailed snowflake directions.

Thank you in advance.

Hallo,

the CA is necessary otherwise you could get warnings in some browser because the certificate chain is not completely.

So upload the CA bundle or copy the certificates from the CA bundle into the CA field
