[cobalt-users] RE: RAQ2 SSL Help!

["Brenda Fuller" <bfuller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I have searched through the knowledgebase and thought I found some answers
but many of the threads concerning this are left unanswered.

Here is what I did -

Bought and installed Cobalt's SSL 3.1 pkg.  Did the "make genkey" and a
"testcert" and that's it.

Now I can no longer FTP to the server as admin and make any changes (I can
only telnet and su to make any changes).  Permission is denied.  When I try
and access cgi scripts - the same thing happens.

I downloaded and tried to install the 3.2 update and since I am a Linux
newbie - I don't know how to go about installing this .pkg since has a ".gz"
extension.  I have looked in my reference book for Linux and this area is
not touched in depth enough for me to understand how to unzip it so that I
can install the .pkg update.

I stopped the SSL server and it has made no difference.  I would uninstall
it from the /var/lib/cobalt/uninstaller directory but I don't know the
command for this (this is where the knowledgebase stopped on the thread -
the command was never given).  I don't know if this would even make a
difference.

Any help asap would be appreciated since my site is totally whacked right
now.

Thanks
