Re: SSL Certs (same host) for Monit and Apache

[Jim Popovitch]

Nevermind.  I discovered my own answer.

To have Apache and Monit use the same SSL certificate you need to 
combine the server.key and server.crt to produce the monit.pem like this:

  cat server.key server.crt > monit.pem

Don't forget to chmod 600 monit.pem.
