Pound isn't involved in CSR generation, just generate it using openssl 
like you would if you were going to use Apache or anything else really.

My favorite instructions are here:

http://urlenco.de/ysvvv

Look in the section titled "GENERATING RSA SERVER CERTIFICATES FOR WEB 
SERVERS".  Do *not* encrypt your key.

Once you have your CSR, just go to any SSL provider and paste that in 
the box when they ask you for it.

I think you have been looking for Ciphers "acceptable:cipher:list",
just use same format as openssl (see man 1 ciphers). It is in pound
documentation...

Thank you it worked.  I actually had tried it before, and it didn't work 
for me originally.  I have 2 certs, and in my second ListenHTTPS I was 
allowing SSLv2. The second "Ciphers" directive was overriding the first 
one.  I guess this should be put in the man page for future reference.
