Description Philip Prindeville 2012-10-30 17:51:08 UTC
Description of problem:

We can create a self-signed cert for 1 year with /etc/pki/tls/certs/make-dummy-cert (or similarly, with the Makefile in the same directory), but there's no accompanying scripting to re-issue a cert good for another year.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

openssl-1.0.0j-1

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Generate a cert with make-dummy-cert
2. Wait 1 year
3. Try to reissue an updated cert... you can't with the existing scripting
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

Can we get an estimate of when this might be fixed?

Thanks.

Comment 2 Tomas Mraz 2012-11-26 09:43:36 UTC
Unfortunately I cannot give you such estimate. I suggest you to work with upstream on this issue.

The make-dummy-cert and makefile aren't part of the tarball, so I'm assuming they aren't part of what comes from upstream either.

That suggests that they are Fedora-isms.

Comment 4 Tomas Mraz 2012-11-26 19:21:30 UTC
Heh, you're right. Anyway I'd suggest you to provide a patch that would implement this functionality if you want to get the functionality included in Fedora as soon as possible.

Included with the name renew-dummy-cert along the make-dummy-cert script.
