Client, Server and CA Certificate with OpenSSL

Client, Server and CA Certificate with OpenSSL

In this post, We will learn how to create CA key, CA certificate, server key, the server CSR and client key, the client CSR. We will also see how to create a client, server certificate and sign it with CA certificate with OpenSSL command on Ubuntu.

Create the CA Key and Certificate for signing Client Certs

 openssl genrsa -des3 -out ca.key 4096  
 openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key ca.key -out ca.crt  

Create the Server Key, CSR, and Certificate

 openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024  
 openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr  

Self-sign the certificate with our CA cert

 openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in server.csr -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -set_serial 01 -out server.crt  

Create the Client Key and CSR

 openssl genrsa -des3 -out client.key 1024  
 openssl req -new -key client.key -out client.csr  

Sign the client certificate with our CA cert

 openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in client.csr -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -set_serial 01 -out client.crt

Install Virtual Environment

VIRTUAL ENV Virtualenv is a tool to create an isolated Python environment. In this post, we will learn how to setup virtualenv on ubuntu. Prerequisite pip Install Virtualenv If you have pip3  sudo pip3 install virtualenv if you have pip sudo pip install virtualenv Create a Virtualenv virtualenv venv venv is a directory in which virtual environment will be created. Working with Virtualenv source venv/bin/activate Please write comments if you find anything incorrect, or you want to share more information about the topic discussed above.

Equations

In general we frame real life problems into some mathematical formula called equations in which we use constant and some variables(unknown) Example: Ram is 12 years old.Ram 's age is 3/5 of Shyam's age what is Shyam's age. Let Shyam's age is x then 3/5 of sham's age is 3*x/5 x*3/5=12 x=60/3=20 so Shyam's age is 20. Linear equations When there is a linear combination of unknown variables is there then eqn is linear Example: 3x+ 2y+ 4z=9 Non Linear Equations: Equations in which non linear combination of the variable is there then eqn is non linear. When any 2 unknown variable multiplication present in the equation then it is the nonlinear equation. Example: 2x+5yz=98 is a nonlinear equation because yz multiplication is there: Quadratic equation in one variable: x^2 + 4*x + 2=0 is non linear because unknown variable x is being multiplied in term x^2 Quadratic equation in many variable: x^2 + y^2 +z^2 + w=0 cubic equati...

How Machine Learning (ML) Work

How Machine Learning (ML) Work In this post, We will learn how machine learning work. What is machine learning (ML) ? Machine learning is a study of model that compute use to progressively improve their performance on a specific task. What is Machine learning models ? Machine learning model contains a set of instruction or mathematical formula or in simple word it contain a piece of code in which we provide some data as input and model return some output. We learn more about model and how use a machine leaning model latter. How Machine Learning (ML) Work  ? This part we will understand with an example. Suppose want to have a simple application which will take a picture and banana or apple and application will tell us either it is banana or apple or picture is neither banana nor apple. To solve this problem first we provide a set of banana picture to our model and we will tell our model that this is a banana picture similarly we will provide a set of apple...

How to install certificates for command line

Install Certificates In this post, We will learn how to install the certificate on Ubuntu with the command line. Open your terminal and execute the following sequence of command. Here mycert.cer is the certificate that you want to install. $ sudo cp mycert.cer /usr/share/ca-certificates/mycert.pem $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates $ sudo update-ca-certificates $ git config --global http.sslCAInfo /usr/share/ca-certificates/mycert.pem Please write comments if you find anything incorrect, or you want to share more information about the topic discussed above.
