OpenSSL CSR Creation for Apache SSL

How to generate a CSR for Apache using OpenSSL
Recommended: Save yourself some time by using our new OpenSSL CSR Wizard to create your apache ssl csr. Just fill in the details, click Generate, and paste your customized openssl command into your terminal.
If you will be using Apache for Mac OS X server 10.5, see our Mac OS X CSR instructions.


Of course if you prefer to build your own shell commands to generate your apache csr, just follow our old instructions below:
1.      Login to your server via your terminal client (ssh). At the prompt, type:

# openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout server.key -out server.csr

Generate with SHA-2
# openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -sha256 -out server.csr -keyout server.key

where server is the name of your server.
Country Name (2 letter code) [GB]:VN
State or Province Name (full name) [Berkshire]:VietNam
Locality Name (eg, city) [Newbury]:VietNam
Organization Name (eg, company) [My Company Ltd]:VietNam Post Limited
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:VietNam  Post Limited
Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:www.vnpost.vn
Email Address []:pdelete@vnpost.vn
Please enter the following 'extra' attributes
to be sent with your certificate request
A challenge password []:
An optional company name []:





2.      This
begins the process of generating two files: the Private-Key file for the
decryption of your SSL Certificate, and a certificate signing request (CSR)
file (used to apply for your SSL Certificate) with apache openssl. 



When you are prompted for the Common Name
(domain name), enter the fully qualified domain name for the site you are
securing. If you are generating an Apache CSR for a Wildcard SSL
Certificate your common name should start with an asterisk (such as
*.example.com). 



You will then be prompted for your organizational
information, beginning with geographic information. There may be default
information set already. 



This will then create your openssl .csr file. 



3.      Open
the CSR file with a text editor and copy and paste it (including the BEGIN and
END tags) into the DigiCert Certificate order form. 



4.      Save
(backup) the generated .key file as it will be required later for Certificate
installation.

CLEANING UP THE ZABBIX DATABASE





















 My Zabbix database size increased a lot in the last few months and since my disk was running out space, I decided to clean up the old events from the database.   Looking at the database tables, the biggest one was  history_uint , which holds the items history data – over 400 millions of records and over 30 Gb of disk space before the clean up.   Since deleting the old records from this table directly would be a very slow process, I decided to create a new table and insert the latest records from the  history_uint  table and then just replace the old table with a new one.   Since this is not an offical procedure, use it at your own risk.   Environment:  Zabbix v2.2  MySql 5.1 – InnoDB with  innodb_file_per_table=ON   Step 1 – Stop the Zabbix server   Step 2 – Open your favourite MySQL client and create a new table   CREATE TABLE  history_uint_new  LIKE  history_uint;   Step 3 – Insert the latest records from the  history_uint  table to the  history_uint_new table   First you need to de

Configuring DHCP Relay service on the FortiGate unit





















 Configuring DHCP Relay service on the FortiGate unit  If the clients are configured to obtain a IP address using DHCP relay, configure the FortiGate server as below:   To configure DHCP relay on the FortiGate unit    1. Go to System > Network > Interfaces and select Interface want to configure DHCP relay.    2. Enable DHCP Server in the interface and choose Advanced    3. For Mode, select Relay.    4. In Type select Regular.    5. Select OK.    6. If a router is installed between the FortiGate unit and the DHCP server, define a static route to the DHCP server.   Note : Sometimes it is required to specify more than one DHCP relay IP, to allow for the coverage of additional LAN subnets. Although the Web Based Manager (GUI) does not provide an option to configure this, it is possible to set up to 8 IPs from the CLI.         config system interface              edit <REQUIRED_INTERFACE_HERE>                set dhcp-relay-ip <FIRST_IP> <SECOND_IP> ....<EIGHTH_IP&

WAN link load balancing

 W A N link load balancing   In the same way that incoming traffic can be load balanced, outgoing or WAN traffic can also be load balanced and for the same three reasons.   1 .  Reduce the places in the work flow where a single point of failure can bring the process to a halt.   2 .  Expand the capacity of the resources to handle the required workload.   3 .  Have it configured so that the process of balancing the workload is automatic.   Often, it can be just as important for an organizations members to be able to access the Internet as it is for the denizens of the Internet to access the Web facing resources.   There is now a  WA N Load Balancing  feature located in the  N e t w o r k  section of the GUI (“WAN LLB”).   As part of the new WAN Load Balancing feature, the FortiOS 5.2  R ou t e r > Static > Settings  GUI page has been removed. WAN Load Balancing should be used instead of the 5.2  E C M P Load Balancing Method  settings. The 5.2  L i n k Health Monitor  definitions
