为了简单明了，先采用RPM包的方式安装Apache服务器。
# cd /misc/cd/RedHat/RPMS/ //进入光盘的包存放目录
# rpm -ivh rpmdb-redhat-4-0.20070421.i386.rpm //安装这个包的目的是便于解决有些程序的依赖性关系
# rpm -ivh rpmdb-redhat-4-0.20070421.i386.rpm //安装这个包的目的是便于解决有些程序的依赖性关系
# rpm -ivh --aid httpd-2.0.52-32.ent.i386.rpm //加--aid自动解决包的依赖性关系，因此前面已经安装了rpmdb包
# rpm -ivh mod_ssl-2.0.52-32.ent.i386.rpm //安装这个包的目的是实现https
# echo 'this is my first page!' > /var/www/html/index.html //新建一个默认主页放到apache定义的默认主目录中
# service httpd start //启动服务器
在浏览器中输入 https://服务器IP 安装证书就可以实现安全的HTTP了。
但是这时候的证书是mod_ssl自动生成的，信息并不是我们自己想要的！所以我们可以用下面的方法制作自己的证书。
# cd /etc/httpd/conf //进入apache配置文件存放目录
# rm -f ssl.*/server.* //将mod_ssl自动安装的相关证书和签名文件删除
# openssl genrsa -des3 1024 > ssl.key/server.key //生成私钥文件（Private Key）该文件要求输入口令。
# openssl rsa -in ssl.key/server.key -out ssl.key/server.key //如果不想使用口令可以去掉，这时会要求输入生成时设置的口令。
# rm -f ssl.*/server.* //将mod_ssl自动安装的相关证书和签名文件删除
# openssl genrsa -des3 1024 > ssl.key/server.key //生成私钥文件（Private Key）该文件要求输入口令。
# openssl rsa -in ssl.key/server.key -out ssl.key/server.key //如果不想使用口令可以去掉，这时会要求输入生成时设置的口令。
# openssl req -new -key ssl.key/server.key -out ssl.csr/server.csr //生成证书签名请求文件（Certificate Signing Request）
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [GB]:CH //输入国家名称
State or Province Name (full name) [Berkshire]:BeiJing //省名
Locality Name (eg, city) [Newbury]:Beijing //城市
Organization Name (eg, company) [My Company Ltd]:XHCE //组织名称
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:BJXH //单位名称
Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:[url]http://yuan2.blog.51cto.com[/url] //根据具体情况填写
Email Address []:weisheng213@126.com //邮箱

# service httpd restart //重启apache服务器以读取新的证书信息
在客户端输入服务器的地址测试得到下面的信息：
点击查看证书得到面结果：
安装好证书就可以实现安全HTTP了！
