CSR Generation : Cobalt RAQ4 & XTR

Solution

Generating a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) using Cobalt RAQ4 / XTR

    Go to the Server Management Screen.
    Click the Green icon (Wrench for RaQ4, Pencil for XTR) next to the virtual site on which you want to        enable SSL. The Site Management screen appears.
    Click Site Settings on the left side.
    (Then 'General' for XTR)
    Click the check box next to Enable SSL.
     Click Save Changes.

Once SSL is enabled, the user must now create a self-signed certificate. The self-signed certificate will be signed later by an external authority.

    Go to the Server Management screen.
    Click the Green icon (Wrench for RaQ4, Pencil for XTR) next to the SSL enabled virtual site.
    Click SSL Settings on the left side.
    The Certificate Subject Information table appears.
    Enter the following information :
    Country : Enter the two-letter country code
    State : Enter the name of the state or Country
    Locality : Enter the city or locality
    Organization : Enter the name of the organization
    Organizational Unit As an option, enter the name of a department
    Select Generate self-signed certificate from the pull-down menu at the bottom.
    Click Save Changes.

The RaQ4 / XTR processes the information and regenerates the screen with the new self-signed certificate in the Certificate Request and Certificate windows.

Copy the entire contents of the certificate request, including

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
and
-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

for use during the purchasing process.
