I was told to import a file.txt to the root of my Sophos UTM to verify a Certificate that I just bought

A very good day to you Sir,

 

I hope you all are Doing Great Sirs !!!

 

So I went over to - www.ssls.com and bought a Cert for my Sophos UTM 9.4 Firewall

 

I had to do this because every time I switch on my IPS to decrypt HTTPS traffic, my antivirus keeps on giving me the - Certificate Chain Incomplete Message on every website I surf to

 

So I generated a CSR file from within my Sophos UTM and uploaded it into SSLS.com

For this, I used all Factitious domain and host names as I do not need a real - domain or a host name or a DNS server

I just need to put the certificate into my personal home Sophos UTM Firewall - and there is no need for a real domain or a host name or a DNS server

 

After everything is done I ended up with a file that is something like - CA52D4130FASCV32CSBSACAEXCES23C.txt

In the ABOVE .txt file is Text that reads something like - CA52D4130FASCV32CSBSACAEXCES23Ccomodoca.com

 

So I was told to import this file and put it into the / or root folder of my Sophos UTM Firewall

 

I have done all of the above, but the final part is to have my registered domain name in the CSR file be DNS resolvable ... 

 

This part I am having some problems with as I do not own a Domain and do not have access to a DNS Server

 

The Firewall is using DynDns.Org but I am not able to do a WebHop URL Re-Direction or anything like a CName on it

 

In order that the domain name from the CSR file is resolvable on the internet, I have to had Registered and Owned that domain in the first place

 

I was told that the above has to be done so that when they can resolve my domain name they will activate the Certificate ... 

 

I was told that the other way to activate the Certificate is to have an email address from the CSR file registration to verify the Certificate

 

But since I use all Factitious domain names, I do not have access to this email as well ...

 

So I am at a loss on how I can put the Certificate into my Sophos UTM and Activate it too ...

 

Using - Self Signed Certificate is not working as it too will make my antivirus keeps giving the - Certificate Incomplete Chain - Error Message

 

Can someone please kindly tell me how I am supposed to solve this - Certificate Incomplete Chain issue ?

 

Thank you very much for your time and kind help.

 

Kind Regards to Everyone !!!

  • I afraid I didn't follow your explanation well enough to recommend how to fix your problem, but I'll make a guess: You used a fake FQDN in the CSR, so your cert has that.  Rename your UTM to have a host name of the FQDN (use the trick recommended in The Zeroeth Rule in Rulz) and then create a Host definition as follows:

    If that doesn't resolve your problem, then you are missing certificates and proper importing of that and the two Comodo CAs.

    I wonder if, instead of buying a cert, you just needed to go to the 'HTTPS CAs' tab in 'Web Protection >> Filtering Options' to download the UTMs signing CA into your PC.

  • A very good day to you Sir,

    I hope you are doing Great Sir,

     

    May I please kindly ask - how do I make my "fake FQDN" fully DNS resolvable on the internet ?

     

    This is one of the criteria that I have to had in order that my Certs that I bought from Comodo will Activate online ... 

     

    Hope to hear from you soon.

    The only solution is to register the domain name.  For example if the fake FQDN were secure.domain.com, you would need to register domain.com.
