I want to buy QuickSSL. I think before i can buy it, i should have CSR and Private key for the domain, right? I know i can generate them from cpanel/whm, but i do not know how to do? Can anyone show me how to do? BTW, i have the permission to log in cpanel/WHM.
Many thanks in advance.

There's a help link for that on the order page.

Thanks for your help! If you can give me the url of that page, it would be great because i did not find such kind of information. One comment: I know how to install ssl certificate, but i do not know how to generate CSR and private key.

EV1's is down, but it's on the geotrust site again after that anyway. Plus... google... http://www.rapidssl.com/ssl-certificate-su...-csr/cpanel.htm

Thanks, But when I paste the CSR into the appropriate form at geotrust.com, I get the following error :
> "Please enter a valid CSR
> Bad extension(s) found in CSR: Check challenge passphrase is
> alphanumeric, and no SeverGatedCrypto extension exists. " Please advise.

Usually that means you didn't copy all of the CSR before pasting it in the order form. There is a header and footer people often don't include. Or perhaps there is some white space after the CSR that needs to be trimmed?
