Certificate

Pegasus uses TLS library of Plan9 4ed for HTTPS support.

Creating certificate using openssl

I used openssl on Linux. The bellows are my log:

	[arisawa@pc web]$ openssl req -x509 -nodes -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout key.pem -out 
		cert.pem 
	Using configuration from /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf 
	Generating a 1024 bit RSA private key 
	................................++++++ 
	...................++++++ 
	writing new private key to 'key.pem' 
	----- 
	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) [AU]:JP 
	State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:Aichi 
	Locality Name (eg, city) []:Nagoya 
	Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]:Aichi University 
	Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []: 
	Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:ar.aichi-u.ac.jp 
	Email Address []:arisawa@aichi-u.ac.jp 
	[arisawa@pc web]$ 

then we have key.pem and cert.pem in the working directory.
