- Certificate Authority
- ---------------------
- CA Certificate is placed in /etc/ssl/certs/ and name closely to CN of
- organisation ( s/ /_/g ) appended "_CA.crt".
- CA Key is located in /etc/ssl/private/ named similarly appended
- "_CA.key".
- Certificate is symlinked to "/etc/ssl/certs/cacert.pem" for easy
- locating by scripts.
- Hosts
- -----
- Host certificates are placed in /etc/ssl/certs/ either named by the
- service they provide appended ".pem", or symlinked with that name from
- hostname.key or whatever makes best sense in the situation, either with
- the key embedded or the key at the same place.
- The script /usr/share/local/localmksslcerts can be used to make
- self-signed certificates with embedded keys.
- Users
- -----
- Have a look at this web page:
- http://www.cise.ufl.edu/help/secure-access/ssl-mail-setup.shtml
- The script is at /usr/share/local/mycert - adapted to Debian GNU/Linux.
