Problem on generating SSL Cert

Hi folks,

Archlinux 86_64 2007-08-2

On running
$ sudo openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.key

Error opening Private Key server.key
6879:error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory:bss_file.c:352:fopen('server.key','r')
6879:error:20074002:BIO routines:FILE_CTRL:system lib:bss_file.c:354:
unable to load Private Key

Please advise where shall I check and how to fix this problem.  Thanks

On runniing;

$ sudo openssl req -new -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -days 365 -keyout server,key -out server.crt

/etc/ssl/certs/

What FQDN shall I use on "Common Name"? 

On googling I found;
TIP Setup Your FQDN
http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Setup_Your_FQDN

Do I need to do the same on Arch?  TIA
