Generate a CSR and private key

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout yourdomain.key -out yourdomain.csr

Common Name: The fully-qualified domain name, or URL, you’re securing. If you are requesting a Wildcard certificate, add an asterisk (*) to the left of the common name where you want the wildcard, for example *.bagario.net Organization: The legally-registered name for your business. If you are enrolling as an individual, enter the certificate requestor’s name. Organization Unit: If applicable, enter the DBA (doing business as) name. City or Locality: Name of the city where your organization is registered/located. Do not abbreviate. State or Province: Name of the state or province where your organization is located. Do not abbreviate. Country: The two-letter International Organization for Standardization (ISO) format country code for where your organization is legally registered. Decode a CSR

openssl req -in server.csr -noout -text
