hi all

can someone please guide me to a good howto to Generating X.509 Certificates in centos 5.4 with open ssl? i am using a windows based desktop virtualization software called vWorkspace which requires (copy/paste from vWorkspace documentation) • One or more X.509 web server certificates (depending upon configuration) • Trusted root certificate from the issuing CA installed into the Windows machine store of the SSL Gateway for certificates that have been installed on Web Access or Connection Broker servers. • Your certificate should have the same Issued To and Friendly Name. • The certificate should be an RSA (1024) certificate, not an AES certificate. • You should have a private key that corresponds to the certificate.

i need the certificate for testing purposes only, so i m using openssl to generate a self signed certificate. i m not good enough with the concepts either. hence need sme help

thanks in advance Arvind
