   -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- 
   (Contents of private key) 
   -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY----- 
   -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- 
   (Contents of SSL certificate: your_domain_name.crt) 
   -----END CERTIFICATE-----

   Where private key is tipically www.yoursite.com.key and SSL certificate is www_yoursite_com.crt.

4.  Open miniserv.conf and add at the end of the file:

   ssl_redirect=1
   extracas=/etc/ssl/www.yoursite.com/PositiveSSLCA2.crt

   where extracas is the path of PositiveSSLCA2.crt file.
