This is the certificate you received from the CA for your domain. You may have been sent this via email. If not, you can download it by visiting your Account Dashboard and clicking on your order.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n These files allow the devices connecting to your server to identify the issuing CA. There may be more than one of these certificates. If you got your certificate in a ZIP folder, it should also contain the Intermediate certificates, which is sometimes referred to as a CA Bundle. If not, download the appropriate CA Bundle for your certificate.<\/p>\n This file should be on your server, or in your possession if you generated your CSR from a free generator tool.

To check your work, visit the website in your browser at https:\/\/yourdomain.tld<\/u><\/em> and view the certificate\/site information to see if HTTPS\/SSL is working properly. Remember, you may need to restart your server for changes to take effect.<\/p>\n To check your server\u2019s configurations more thoroughly, use our SSL Checker Tool<\/a> or contact our Customer Experience Department<\/a> for additional assistance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The following instructions will guide you through the SSL installation process on Webmin.
