[Bug 66384] New: mod_ssl SSLCertificateKeyFile Directive French description unclear/wrong regarding combined public/private files
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66384

Bug ID: 66384
Summary: mod_ssl SSLCertificateKeyFile Directive French
description unclear/wrong regarding combined
public/private files
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.5-HEAD
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: Documentation
Assignee: docs@httpd.apache.org
Reporter: chealer@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---

The documentation of mod_ssl's SSLCertificateKeyFile Directive contains the
following paragraph in French:

La clé privé peut aussi être ajoutée au fichier défini par la directive
SSLCertificateFile, mais cette pratique est fortement déconseillée. En effet,
les fichiers de certificats qui comportent une telle clé doivent être définis
après les certificats en utilisant un fichier de clé séparé.

I know little about mod_ssl, but I cannot make sense of the last sentence. The
sentence is fairly different from its English version:

The private key may also be combined with the certificate in the file given by
SSLCertificateFile, but this practice is highly discouraged. If it is used, the
certificate files using such an embedded key must be configured after the
certificates using a separate key file.

There may be a translation issue, but I must admit I also cannot make sense of
the English version (I cannot figure out which files "the certificate files
using such an embedded key" refers to).


By the way, "clé" is feminine, so "privé" should accordingly read "privée".
