Web Server Type

[treeves]

After 6 months, I'm ready to buy a cert. The more that I read about installing certs, the more confused I am.

SSL Companies ask for the web server type. What is ours?

Once I order an SSL, I'm told by these companies that if our Web server is operated by an ISP or hosting service,
the hosting company will generate the CSR file for me upon request.

Okay, how is that done... email request.... form.... Control Panel?

What happens next?

Thanks

Typically a host would generate the CSR.. but with H-Sphere you can do all of this yourself anytime from within the CP.

Here is a complete tutorial on installing an SSL cert in your panel:
