I have SSL certificate, which i upload on my hosting. I need to generate private key, how i can generate it without ssh access.
Thanks.

You can't generate a private key from a certificate (that's the point).
If you already have your certificate, you must have generated a certificate request (CSR) (or perhaps its in-browser equivalent) and generated a private key at that time. This is the file you want, since other re-generated keys won't match the public key in the certificate you now have.

Run the commands provided in the instructions for the tool you are using, but on your local machine. For example, if you are using OpenSSL on your hosting server, generate your private key file using your local command prompt, and upload that through the tools provided by your provider.

I have to set a multiple domains under a single cPanel because the they both need to point to the same document root.
I have successfully added the secondary domain under Domains, and I was able able to upload another SSL certificate for this domain.
However, looks like I am only be able to install one SSL certificate at a time, when I tried to install the secondary SSL, the first one automatically stopped working.
How I can configure cPanel to have both SSLs working? or in this case, do I have to use a single SSL that supports multiple domains?
Thanks
If you add each domain as "Addon" under your cPanel, your hosting provider's free SSL- either, Let's Encrypt or cPanel's SSLs should be able to cover EACH addon domain with a different SSL Certificate and they should not interfere with each other.
If you still experience issues with that, I would recommend reaching your hosting provider to check that further for you and let you know how this can be achieved in their environment.
If they lack support, then I would recommend checking out for a managed hosting provider which will take care of this configuration for you.

I am trying to use the same SSH keys on a new machine. This was my original setup:
~/.ssh/mykey
~/.ssh has 700 permission
~/.ssh/mykey has 600 permission
I used ssh -i to specify the key used to log into a server.
I copied the paths, contents, and permissions of mykey to my new laptop.
Unfortunately, the passphrase I used old machine is not working for my new laptop. Am I missing a step?
It looks like it is better to just create a new SSH key.

I bought a ssl certificate generated with SHA-2 algorithm.
It was successfully installed in apache2 server. I also test it with online tool like https://www.sslshopper.com and the result is completely ok, however in firefox console I got something like this
This site makes use of a SHA-1 Certificate; it's recommended you use certificates with signature algorithms that use hash functions stronger than SHA-1.
I also double checked with Chrome and other browser. It seems ok.
is there any gotchas related to my certificate ?
please help and thanks in advance.
Your certificate is fine. The warnings logged in the Firefox console are due to resources served from other domains (speficially, s-static.ak.facebook.com, connect.facebook.comand avocado-app.s3.amazonaws.com) that use SHA-1 certificates.

I have a web application with nginx. I would like to have unlimited subdomains. When I open subdomain.domain.com I see in my Chrome:
Your connection is not private
Attackers might be trying to steal your information from subdomain.domain.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards).
Back to safetyAdvanced
NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID
I can't understand how to fix this issue. I should add another SSL cert for all subdomains or I need different cert for every subdomain? Can someone explain what is the correct flow here?
Thanks!
A wildcard SSL certificate would allow you to have unlimited subdomains with a single certificate.

I'm about to get an SSL Certificate for my website. In particular, it will be used because I'm switching over to a payment processor which requires it. A few "noob" questions:
1) Will I have to change any code that directs users to http://www.mysite.com to https://www.mysite.com, or will users who go to http://www.mysite.com be automatically re-directed to https://www.mysite.com?
2) I assume that https "slows" things down on a site? If this is the case, can I maintain the http everywhere on my site except when they make a payment to the processor? i.e. http://www.mysite.com/any_old_page.php, while https://www.mysite.com/pay_for_the_stuff.php
Thanks!
No, that won't happen automatically. You will have to change your server configuration to do that.
Yes, it slows things down. How much depends on the cipher suite used for the server, the server software and hardware. You should play around with different TLS cipher suites to see how much. It depends on that (and of the nature of your site) if you should only use TLS on part of your site or all of your site. As for the requirements of the payment processor: ASK!
