Open this Word file on your host OS (Windows 7). Type your answers and insert screenshots into answer boxes where indicated. When saving this file please use your first name and first letter of your last name, followed by “_Lab6” as the file name. For example, I would name the file AlanK_Lab6.docx. When you are done, save it and submit it to me via email ([email protected]) as an attachment.

There are a lot of activities in this lab. Although it will be difficult to remember the activities in detail, it will be helpful to have been exposed to the process of installing the numerous services covered in this lab. You will also notice that some activities repeat. The repetitive things that you do should start to become easier to remember.

Task 1: Create a root Certificate Authority

In this exercise, we need to create a root CA to be used by a LDAP server later in Task 2.

Open your server vm and work on the handout exercise Create a new root Certificate Authority. Please enter your myokanagan.bc.ca email address in the process of creating the Certificate Authority. Take a screenshot just before you choose “Export as Common Server Certificate”.
