documentation flaw

I was going to do some SSL testing, but unfortunately lacked a
SSL-enabled server.

On a hunch I searched for SSL in the TortoiseSVN documentation.....

Me: Thank God for documentation.
     This would've taken me days if not for section 3.1.6 of the manual.

mr. Large: That's ok... you can just call me Simon.

Me: Ok :-).

Me: Anyway, there's a bug in it.

3.1.6

* 8: Creating a certificate.

OpenSSL cmd nr. 1 creates the CSR file (whatever that is).

OpenSSL cmd nr. 2 creates the key file (whatever that is).
Only this command needs "privkey.pem" as input, a file that we haven't
generated ?!

Seems like a step, something like fx. this command, is missing:
# openssl genrsa -out privkey.pem 2048
