Figure 4-6. Configure SSL
14. In the Configure SSL page applicable only to a Proxy connecting to an RHN Satel-
lite Server or another RHN Proxy Server with SSL enabled , provide the information
needed to generate the server certificate. The most important item is the CA certifi-
cate password, which must match the password used while enabling SSL on the par-
ent server. The remaining fields may match the parent server’s values but can differ
depending on the role of the RHN Proxy Server, for instance reflecting a different ge-
ographic location. Similarly, the email address can be the same one provided earlier
for the Proxy administrator but can be directed to a particular certificate adminis-
trator. Certificate expiration is configurable. As always, ensure the values provided
here exist in the backups of information described in Chapter 2 Requirements . Once
finished, click continue .
