# Free SSL Certificate CSR Generator
#
# OpenSSL configuration file for creating a CSR
# Modify only the FQDN and ORGNAME lines, if required and then run:
#
# openssl req -new -config ssl-config.cnf -keyout myserver.key -out myserver.csr
#
# from the CPanel SSH terminal from "/home/$USER/anish/ssl" directory
#
# BUT, always take backup of existing CSR and KEY file before running this script!
