A question regarding how to type a sertin block in the set

Hey all. I have read you're documentation, including the FAQ, but haven't been able to figure out exactly what to type for this block; as it's been a while since I've tryed to use it. Now I can't remember what to type exactly LOL.
The block I'm refering to is the set ssl{ block.
Could someone give me an example of what to type here? LOL.
I'm using Unrealircd3.2.3, with no changes, under Windows ATM.
I'm just trying to remember the sintax for the block where you spessify the files where the SSL keys are, the sertificate is, etc..
I.e. For example: Server.sirt.pem. I've read over that section clearly, but still can't figure out the Sintax.
As I am a blind computer user; it takes me much longer to do things then what a sighted user would be able to do; seeing as I've got to listen to speech output to access computers.
If anyone could help, i'd be greatful.
Thank you very much.
(I will however note; that while this is rair for me on first try; got Unrealircd.conf working without errors. I just wanted to add the ssl block, but can't remember the sintax.

Thanks again.

Code: Select all

set {
        ssl {
                certificate "server.cert.pem";
                key "server.key.pem";
        };
};

Dukat: I was a little curious; what is the file: Server.req.Pem about? Is that another sertificate or something? Just curious about that. BTW, thank you for the responss you've given, I'll make sure I memorize it.

server.req.pem is your certificate signing request. You could use this file to get a "real" certificate from Verisign, Thawte, cacert.org etc.
