Not free but you can get "legit" SSL certs here for $9.00/year for one year or 7.95/year for 5 years: http://www.namecheap.com/

Apache: Trusting a single certificate with SSLCACertificateFile.

We want to set up SSL client authentication and we will only have a single client that we want to allow through to the website.

Is it possible to allow just a single certificate to authenticate by just specifying that one cert in SSLCACertificateFile? i.e. without specifying the CA cert instead?

If so, would my SSLVerifyDepth then be zero?

Are there any reasons I might not have thought about why this isn't a good idea or any other considerations?

Trouble installing renewed SSL certificate with Apache

The ssl cert on my apache server have expired. It is actually a server at work - a important one as well so I'm a bit stressed at the moment.

The cert is renewed and I have received the cert files. I'm now trying to install them but I can't get it to work.

I thought it was as simple as just copying the new crt file to the server and restart apache but apache start fails.

I see this in the log:

509 certificate routines:X509_check_private_key:key values mismatch

Server: Apache 2.2.22 on Ubuntu 12.04. How does one install a renewed ssl cert? Do I need to create a new private key and ca-bundle? Please point me in the right direction.

Can't not confirm untrusted certificate using SVN

I am using TortoiseSVN 1.8.1,
Build 24570 - 32 Bit , 2013/07/22 18:28:29, Subversion 1.8.1, -release, apr 1.4.8, apr-util 1.5.2, serf 1.3.0, OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013, zlib 1.2.8

I created batch file and want to call it from Jenkins CI.

The command line follows:

svn update --trust-server-cert --non-interactive --username UserName --password Password FolderName

If I run it from cmd.exe it is ok. But if I run it from Jankins, it fails with error:

svn: E230001: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'https://server/path' svn: E230001: Server SSL certificate untrusted

I found similar question at SO http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17177405/svn-server-ssl-certificate-untrusted-from-post-commit-hook, but there is no answer for it. How can I fix the issue?
