Configure the httpsd.conf file

1. Open the httpsd.conf file in a text editor and ensure that the virtual host that you purchased the certificate for has the following directives and that they point to the correct files:

   SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/raven/module/pki/certs/yourdomain.cert
   SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/raven/module/pki/keys/domainname.key

2. Save the HTTPDS.CONF file

Test your certificate by using a web browser to connect to your server. Use the https protocol directive (e.g. https://your server/) to indicate you wish to use secure HTTP.

Note: The padlock icon on your browser will be displayed in the locked position if your certificates are installed correctly and the server is properly configured for SSL.
