bilgebag's Journal: Vsftp to provide ftp/s

Generation of private key:

openssl genrsa -out vsftpd_key.pem 1024

Generation of Cert:

openssl req -new -x509 -key vsftpd_key.pem -out vsftpd_cert.pem

Combining: cat vsftpd_key.pem >> vsftpd_cert.pem

And this is pointed to in vsftpd.conf: rsa_cert_file=/path/to/cert/vsftpd_cert.pem

Alternatively:

openssl req -x509 -nodes -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout /etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem -out etc/ssl/private/vsftpd.pem
