Open SSL -making your own cert for IIS test or internal servers.

Ok not about games... but I wanted a place to save this...



Download open SSL from: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/openssl.htm and install it...

1st you must configure...
Do the easy thing... Download a config file... it has data that isn't your company but who cares. http://sial.org/howto/openssl/ca/

Setup your CA
1st create a private key... I don't really get this part... but this will get you through it...

C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin>openssl genrsa -des3 -out CA2.key 1024
Loading 'screen' into random state - done
Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus
...............++++++
...................++++++
e is 65537 (0x10001)
Enter pass phrase for CA2.key: *******
Verifying - Enter pass phrase for CA2.key:  *******

ok now you have to create a CA certificate... note your input is in bold

C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin>openssl
OpenSSL> req -new -key CA2.key -x509 -days 1095 -out CA2.crt -config openssl.cnf

Enter pass phrase for CA2.key:*****same as the one you used to create ca2.key***
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.

... ok now go get certout2.cer and install in on iis... Done...

Threw ok

Before the match I couldn't hit anything... I was all over the place... then I figured out I wasn't reaching for the board before throwing... so my sholder wasn't in line with my elbow, wrist, and eyes...

I fixed the problem and threw a decent game before league... our captain saw me throwing bad and asked me if I wanted to cork for us in game one... I usually do the corking... I saw him throw a 171 just a few minutes before)... I hesitated and then confidently said yes... I put one on the wire... you would have to hit a cork to beat me...

I then started the night with a 66 I think... I don't remember but I do remember that both Ryan and I hit over 60 both of our first two turns... (it was team, 4 players per team 801)...

I threw well except durring the 3rd game I got a bit sloppy but did manage to hit the double 16 on my first dart to take the game... I am happy with my throwing... especially for the limited practice of late. The throwing on Thursday did help...

Playoffs on monday

Next monday is playoffs and I am throwing about my best of the year... I went out with Rob this monday and we threw and I threw pretty good...

Back from vacation

spent a week on vacation... fun in the sun... tonight is the last nite of our dart league... I will take the summer off but I may play as an alternate for teams needing a player... or I might just play every other week in a tourney...
