Installation Instructions- Zeus
This document provides
instructions for installing SSL Certificates. If you are unable to use
these instructions for your server, VeriSign recommends that you contact
either the vendor of your software or an organisation that supports
Zeus.
Step 1: Install CA Certificate
Secure Site
If you are installing a Secure Site Certificate, you
need to first install the Secure
Site Intermediate CA Certificate.
Secure Site Pro
If you are installing a Secure Site Pro Certificate,
you need to first install the Secure
Site Pro Intermediate CA Certificate.
Note to ISP Center Customers: Certificates enrolled through
VeriSign's ISP Center do not need the Secure Site Intermediate CA Certificate
installed at this time.
- Copy the contents of the Intermediate to a file and save it as intermediate.pub.
The file can be saved somewhere easy to access. For example: /usr/local/ssl
Step 2: Install the SSL Certificate
VeriSign will email
you your certificate. If the certificate is an attachment (Cert.cer),
you can use the file. If the certificate is in the body of the email,
copy and paste it into a text file (such as OriginalCert.txt) using
Vi or Notepad. Do not use Microsoft Word or other word processing programs
that may add characters. Confirm that there are no extra lines or spaces
in the file.
- Save the certificate file from VeriSign along with the Intermediate
file into a directory on the server. For example: /usr/local/ssl
- Creating a chained certificate is a matter of performing a few command
line operations to 'cat' or combine your public certificate and the
VeriSign Intermediate certificate together. These operations cannot
currently be performed from the web Admin Interface. In an example,
if your public certificate is in the file 'my.pub' and the VeriSign
Intermediate certificate is in the file 'ca.pub', type the following
command:
cat my.pub ca.pub > chained.pub
- Open the Zeus Web Controller. For example: http://server:9090
- From the left-hand menu click SSL Certificates
- Open the chained.pub file that was created earlier and copy all of
the text. Paste this into the certificate text box.
- Click Ok
