Hi Nick,
I did read most of it, but may have overlooked some points and you made a good job for all beginners
, easy to read.
With reference to the small chapter 12 dedicated to Paypal:
I'm actually uncertain whether cbsubcr has Encrypted the payment buttons to PayPal or if we need to set this up? My host provider and Cbsubscr General Settings have identified that:
1. fsockopen is available with openSSL extension and OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 0.9.7a Feb 19 2003
2. Path to openssl: /usr/bin/openssl
3. Openssl STatus: Not needed, as OpenSSL PHP module is loaded
3. Openssl status (settings): OpenSSL PHP module is available with openSSL extension and OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 0.9.7a Feb 19 2003 loaded
----
I did also discover through reading about encyption in Paypal that there are two relevant sections:
1. Website Payment Preferences >>
Block Non-Encrypted Paypal Payments On/Off
2. Encrypted Payment Settings where we can download Paypal certificate and upload openssl (our own certificate) that we can create by using Openssl from chapter 13
----
Since I am not a specialist but I wish to have secure payment system based on the manual it's unclera to me whether with my host settings described above, whether I need to create my own openssl certificate?
So, basically does CBsubscr Encrypt the payment buttons to PayPal? I know that chapter 12 are not supposed to detail everything, but my confusion comes also in the doc from Openssl and some advise would help thanks Nick ,
FLN.
