I did the deb linux perfect server install (first one on list) got to the part when installing ispconfig 3 on the last page where it says: You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated into your certificate request. What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN. There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank For some fields there will be a default value, If you enter '.', the field will be left blank. Instead of hitting return and leaving them all blank, I entered my country, state, city, etc. I am now sitting at the common name prompt and just realized it. Is it alright to do this or can/should I abort and start over? If I should continue, should I leave the common name blank or put my server host and domain there? Thanks in advance for your help, Troy
Common Name is the only relevant entry; put your server name there. The rest may or may not be filled in.
