=head4 gets SSLPassPhrase by file instead of prompt for |
| 115 |
|
|
|
| 116 |
|
|
Every start of apache require to enter the password for the above generated SSL key. |
| 117 |
|
|
This can be annoying if you plan some automatic restart of apache. |
| 118 |
|
|
There is a way to automatically give the password to apache with the option: |
| 119 |
|
|
|
| 120 |
|
|
SSLPassPhraseDialog exec:/path/to/your_password_programm |
| 121 |
|
|
|
| 122 |
|
|
But it's upt to you to write the password programm, be careful!! |
| 123 |
|
|
Some times, it is easier to simply protect a non protected file, than writing a programm that gives a password!! |
| 124 |
|
|
Easiest way would be e.g. |
| 125 |
|
|
|
| 126 |
|
|
#-----------your_password_programm --------- |
| 127 |
|
|
#!/bin/sh |
| 128 |
|
|
echo <your passphrase> |
| 129 |
|
|
#------------------ end snip ---------------------- |
| 130 |
|
|
|
| 131 |
|
|
chmod 700 /path/to/your_password_programm |
| 132 |
|
|
chown www-data.www-data /path/to/your_password_programm |
| 133 |
|
|
|
| 134 |
|
|
|
| 135 |
|
|
But again, this would be very unsecure!!! |
| 136 |
|
|
|
| 137 |
|
|
|
| 138 |
|
|
|

|
|
=head4 modify apache init script to start with ssl |
| 141 |
|
|
|
| 142 |
|
|
('apachectl startssl' won't works at debian/testing for some reason....) |
| 143 |
|
|
|
| 144 |
|
|
|
| 145 |
|
|
- edit /etc/init.d/apache: |
| 146 |
|
|
|
| 147 |
|
|
replace start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile $PIDFILE --exec $DAEMON |
| 148 |
|
|
|
| 149 |
|
|
with start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile $PIDFILE --exec $DAEMON -- DSSL |
| 150 |
|
|
|
| 151 |
|
|
in the WHOLE script! |
| 152 |
|
|
|
| 153 |
|
|
|
| 154 |
|
|
|
| 155 |
|
|
=head4 finally start apache.. |
| 156 |
|
|
|
| 157 |
|
|
- run |
| 158 |
|
|
/etc/init.d/apache start |
| 159 |
|
|
|
| 160 |
|
|
and you are in business... ;) |

=head4 Relative HTTP/HTTPS switching |
| 164 |
|
|
|
| 165 |
|
|
Switch from HTTP to HTTPS and vice versa by using only relative URLs |
| 166 |
|
|
Benefit: Absolute URLs are avioded and this way the website is more flexible |
| 167 |
