INVESTIGATION 2: CONFIGURE WEBMAIL (Roundcube Mail) TO USE ENCRYPTION
Now that the webmail application is using an encrypted connection when communicating with the email servers, it is time to encrypt the client's connection to the web server.
# First you need to generate a new certificate for apache '''on your vm1 ''' machine by issuing the following commands:
<source>mkdir /etc/ssl/{private,certs}
openssl genrsa -des3 -out vm1.andrewsmith.ops.key 2048
</source>
#restart apache and modify your firewall to allow traffic to '''port 443'''.
#Open a web-browser on your host and try to connect to https://vm1.<yourdomain>.ops/webmail
::You should get a security exception similar to the one's you saw with the email, and for the same reason (the site you are trying to contact has a self-signed certificate). Add the exception and login to access your email.
