I think I've got this sorted out now.

When I first requested the cert, I used the info in server.req.pem, but cacert's system gave me an error message. Something about missing info in the request data. So I manualy entered the missing data.

I recently requested a new certificate using the server ...

Yes, I did.

Yes, I did.

server.cert.pem starts with this: -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
This is the same for both files: the one I got from cacert and the one Config generated.

Several possibilities that I can think of: You put the file in the wrong place. Double-check.
Use set::ssl::key (I think that's the right one) and see if it goes away. Can be used in conjunction with the previous possibility.
If not, there's might be a problem with the certificate itself ...

That should be server.cert.pem.
But now...
* Loading IRCd configuration ..
* Configuration loaded without any problems ..
* Loading tunefile..
* Initializing SSL.
Possible error encountered (IRCd seemily not started)
I just noticed that after this text it says:
tail: cannot open `/home/ircd ...

Should've done that first.

Is there any way to set an exempt to the throttling system? Like let the server not throttle connections from 127.0.0.1

The problem still isn't solved. I want help.

I wonder why I didn't check the log at first anyway...
But anyway, here it is:
[Mon Aug 30 21:18:54 2004] - Failed to load SSL private key server.key.pem

That should be server.cert.pem.
But now...

Sorry for the dumb question, but how do I use the certificate I got from cacert?
