How to setup DA with an SSL certificate

If you already have your own certificate and key, then paste them into the following files:

certificate: /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cacert.pem
key: /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cakey.pem

Edit the /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf and set SSL=1 (default is 0). This tells DA to load the certificate and key and to use an SSL connection. DirectAdmin needs to be restarted after this change.

If you also have a CA Root Certificate, this can be specified by adding:

carootcert=/usr/local/directadmin/conf/carootcert.pem

into the /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf file and by pasting the contents of the caroot cert into that file.
