[hunchentoot-devel] Running Hunchentoot with ssl

[Brian]

Try the following:

1. Create the private key file

    openssl genrsa -out privkey.pem 2048

2. Then create the certificate using the private key

    openssl req -new -x509 -key privkey.pem -out cacert.pem -days 1095

3. (hunchentoot::start-server :port 443
                                   
                                    :ssl-certificate-file "cacert.pem"
                                    :ssl-privatekey-file "privkey.pem")
