nickel2323 Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Hey Guys, I'm a complete newb at this so please bear with me. I searched around the site looking for my answers but found nothing. OsCommerce is up and running great. :D But, I did not install an SSL and now I am getting ready to go live and need to install one. I will be processing all transactions by hand so I just want OsCommerce to collect the required info. Who should I purchase my SSL from? Or will it depend on my host? and will the SSL protect the /admin/ section aswell? Also, to implement the SSL all I have to do is change the config file? correct? Thanks in advance, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardsandwars Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Where to purchase your SSL from isn'ta topic we're allowed to discuss here. Just to let you know, though, you shouldn't have to spend more than $50 or $60. And yes, the setting in configure.php should be all you have to change. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit. If you have a question about any of my posts here, your best bet is to contact me though either Email or PM in my profile, and I'll be happy to help.

nickel2323 Posted March 9, 2004 Author Share Posted March 9, 2004 Oops! didn't know. I guess I should have read the rules and regs a little more closely. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardsandwars Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 I guess I should have read the rules and regs a little more closely Well, I did, and I stil get that one wrong from time to time. Apparently, some of the rules are subjective. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit.

burt Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 You would likely be best off to speak with your host - no doubt they can give some advice as to who they prefer you to use. If the cost is about right, then why not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burt Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Further note, that although the Cert might not cost too much, the hosting company might charge you for a dedicated IP address on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickel2323 Posted March 9, 2004 Author Share Posted March 9, 2004 Thanks for the advice. I wasn't sure if one SSL works better then another with OsCommerce (As you can tell I know nothing about them). I have contacted my host and am wait for a reply. Thanks again.
