csr for secure cert

[agilpwc]

Hi
I want to get a secure cert for my website. My question is how to generate a csr. Do you have to pay $49 at this link http://www.rsmarketing.com/cert/futurequest/index.html ?
Or can you do it yourself, for example https://certificates.starfieldtech.com/CSRgeneration.go ?
Thanks
Eric

You can do it yourself. Just follow the Apache 1.x instructions.

Like hobbes said, you are not obliged to order a CSR/Cert through Rich at rsmarketing.com. If you feel comfortable enough on the command-line to generate a CSR yourself and order a secure certificate, you are free to do so. As long as the result is a valid certificate for Apache+ModSSL.
