Depending on your version of Windows, the preceding path-setting instructions might differ slightly.
After OpenSSL has been installed, use instructions similar to those from from Example 1 (shown earlier
in this section), with the following changes:
• Change the following Unix commands:
# Create clean environment
shell> rm -rf newcerts
shell> mkdir newcerts && cd newcerts
On Windows, use these commands instead:
# Create clean environment
shell> md c:\newcerts
shell> cd c:\newcerts
• When a character is shown at the end of a command line, this
'\'
and the command lines entered all on a single line.
After generating the certificate and key files, to use them to test SSL connections, see
"Using SSL Connections".
