Description
|
||
|
===========
|
||
|
|
||
|
lighttpd supports SSLv2 and SSLv3 if it is compiled against openssl.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Configuration
|
||
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
To enable SSL for the whole server you have to provide a valid
|
||
|
certificate and have to enable the SSL engine.::
|
||
|
|
||
|
ssl.engine = "enable"
|
||
|
ssl.pemfile = "/path/to/server.pem"
|
||
|
|
||
|
The HTTPS protocol does not allow you to use name-based virtual
|
||
|
hosting with SSL. If you want to run multiple SSL servers with
|
||
|
one lighttpd instance you must use IP-based virtual hosting: ::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$SERVER["socket"] == "10.0.0.1:443" {
|
||
|
ssl.engine = "enable"
|
||
|
ssl.pemfile = "www.example.org.pem"
|
||
|
server.name = "www.example.org"
|
||
|
|
||
|
server.document-root = "/www/servers/www.example.org/pages/"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you have a .crt and a .key file, cat them together into a
|
||
|
single PEM file:
|
||
|
::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ cat host.key host.crt > host.pem
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Self-Signed Certificates
|
||
|
------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
A self-signed SSL certificate can be generated like this: ::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ openssl req -new -x509 \
|
||
|
-keyout server.pem -out server.pem \
|
||
|
-days 365 -nodes
|
||
|
