Create an SSL certificate to use in my application
advertisements
Made a simple server using TcpListen and would like to add SSL to the applicayion for security.
I need help in the actual steps needed to create a self signed certificate, and what problems if any would there be if I shared the application.
Would the user have to make their own certificate or if using the same one would cause a security issue im guessing, as the certificate would readable if I shared the application or can you hide it in the application itself.
Any question answered is a step closer :)
Thanks
