Can you install a trusted SSL certificate on the NAS?

dja,

Your instructions were spot on and to confirm you CAN install a trusted SSL certificate this way. Just installed a godaddy SSL cert without a problem at all. No annoying IE or Firefox untrusted website windows any more!

Only changes to the above instructions are that godaddy requires you to create the private key first then once the request is approved on their website they let you download their cert bundle and your newly issued ssl cert.

The only code change required is in '/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf' and is the cert bundle name marked below by >>> (obviously don't put >>> in), which in godaddy's case is 'gd_bundle.crt'. Just put it in the '/etc/ssl' directory instead of the 'class3.crt' in the instructions above.

dir             = /etc/ssl              # Where everything is kept
certs           = $dir/certs            # Where the issued certs are kept
crl_dir         = $dir/crl              # Where the issued crl are kept
database        = $dir/index.txt        # database index file.
#unique_subject = no                    # Set to 'no' to allow creation of
                                        # several ctificates with same subject.
new_certs_dir   = $dir/newcerts         # default place for new certs.

>>>certificate     = $dir/gd_bundle.crt    # The CA certificate

Thanks for your guide on this.
