The SSL certificate on esev.com was updated today. I get the SSL certificates from StartSSL, mainly because they are free and trusted by most browsers. StartSSL only needs to validate your email address and that you are the owner of the domain, then you’re free to create as many certificates as you need.

So I don’t need to look it up again next year, here is the one-liner for generating the server’s certificate:

openssl req -new \
    -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout esev.20130825.key \
    -out esev.20130825.csr
