install OpenSSL

Hi everyone,

I'm a beginner in running a webserver and Ubuntu so I wanted to know if somebody could help me install the OpenSSL for my server. Just a simple step by step lesson!


Thanks for reading!

Since you are installing a webserver and wanting SSL, I'd suggest looking at this guide for how to configure and install OpenSSL to fit your needs. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL

It seems very complicated, is that the only way ? How about doing it through webmin?

Im following this http://softwareinabottle.wordpress.c...-ubuntudebian/, but I still can't make the https:// part load. Just ends up with "This webpage is not available" in my chrome browser. So what am I doing wrong ?

Okay, just had to open the ports on my router and it works, but my certificate is not valid.
