* Remove SSLv2 references from the intro(3) and ssl(8) man pages, andlteo2013-03-141-6/+10

| | | | | | | a CSR first, then a self-signed cert as a separate step, using the -days and -sha256 options in the example. Syncs with style used for RSA here/faq and saves hair pulling if you actually want a CSR and don't notice the "-x509". Tweaks from jmc@, stsp and jung like the separate use of -days.

* Make a few formatting fixes:lteo2012-11-061-126/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | - Remove unnecessary .Ar macros. - Change "https" to "HTTPS" to be consistent with other man pages. - Add "(CSR)" to the first instance of "Certificate Signing Request." - Convert one .Ar to .Em in the HISTORY section since the intent of that .Ar was to emphasize a point. - Fix the punctuation in one sentence. feedback/ok jmc

| | | | | | | | | Avoid the classical noob problem: read half the manpage, figure out how to build a DSA certificate, then realize it's not what you need. historically, RSA was patented, and so it made sense to put DSA first. But the patent expired a few years ago... okay millert@, jmc@

| | | | | | | | | | * except when it is escaped with a `\' at the end of the line - fix remaining .Nm usage as well - this is from a patch I received from kwesterback@home.com, who has been working on some scripts for fixing formatting errors in mdoc'd man pages Ok, so there could be a cost/benefit debate with this commit, but since I have the patch we might as well commit it...
