Requires an installation of Apache 2.2 (with OpenSSL) on a Windows PC.

Usage:

Create a file called "create_key.bat" (batch file) in the folder "Apache2.2\bin" and copy the source below into it and save.

Execute the batch file "create_key.bat" and enter the relevant info.

HINT: The "Common Name" requested on a development server needs to be your PC's Server Name.

Upon key generation an Apache server restart will be required.

Remember to check/edit: "Apache2.2\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf"
SSLCertificateFile and SSLCertificateKeyFile to match the file name.
