A nice series of tutorials!

We implemented SSL on our Connect server, following this almost exactly. The only difference was that we have one PEM file that contains the private key instead of having separate files.

The tips on what log files to look at to make sure that configuration was successful were great! I wish I had known about that earlier...

Overall, very well done.

Hi Mathew,
Just wanted to inform you that on the part1 during upgrade configuration your key was unmasked during scroll. AX56T-xxxxx-xxxxx-LAA31
ACCOUNT NAME : MINH - 43190429

You should correct this asap. Thanks for the great tutorial.

Regards
Nasir

Great series of tutorials, Matt. One thing you might want to verify. About 1/4 of the way into Part 5 the audio narration stops. We still hear the mouse clicks but your voice instructions seem to be missing.

I tried re-loading the tutorial several times and got the same results each time.

After removing the linebreaks in your file, there is one left. Did you leave it intentionally? By the way after remowing linebreaks and making the look of the file similar to yours I get invalid header error from openSSL. Are line breaks so crucial?

Also the last file does not have audio.
