traffic balanced linux boxes need new certificates for apache
lets see if i can explain.
two linuxes RH 7.3 with a load balancer. the certificate has expired. lets assum linux1 and linux2 can i simply generate a new self-signed certificate somewhere on linux1, copy it to same location on linux2 and then edit both httpd.conf to point to the new certificates and restart them? Or do I have to generate seperate certificates (one in linux1 and other in linux2)? TIA. |
I think you should be fine with one certificate (and the respactive key), since only hostname is used during the generation of the certifiacate and I assume you use the same name for both apache servers since you do load balancing.

that's right.
i generated a certificate on one machine scp .crt and .key files to the other. edited the httpd.conf file to reflect the new certificate/key par and restart the httpd. flawless. i think some times step by step suck. i almost made this in "one liner" style instead of 5000 steps. |
