certmonger-local-submit(8)


NAME

   local-submit

SYNOPSIS

   local-submit [-d state-directory] [-v] [csrfile]

DESCRIPTION

   local-submit is the helper which certmonger uses to implement its local
   signer.  It is not normally  run  interactively,  but  it  can  be  for
   troubleshooting purposes.  The signing request which is to be submitted
   should either be in a file whose name is given as an argument,  or  fed
   into local-submit via stdin.

   The local signer is currently hard-coded to generate and use a 2048-bit
   RSA key and a name and initial serial number based on a UUID, replacing
   that  key  and  certificate  at  roughly  the  midpoint of their useful
   lifetime.

   certmonger supports retrieving the list of current and  previously-used
   local  CA certificates.  See getcert-request(1) and getcert-resubmit(1)
   for information about specifying where  those  certificates  should  be
   stored.

OPTIONS

   -d state-directory
          Identifies  the  directory  which  contains  the  local signer's
          private key, certificates, and other  data  used  by  the  local
          signer.

   -v     Increases the verbosity of the tool's diagnostic logging.

EXIT STATUS

   0      if  the  certificate  was  issued.  The  new certificate will be
          printed.

   3      if the helper needs to be called again.  An error message may be
          printed.

   4      if  critical  configuration  information  is  missing.  An error
          message may be printed.

FILES

   creds  is currently a PKCS#12  bundle  containing  the  local  signer's
          current  signing  key  and  current  and  previously-used signer
          certificates.  It should not be modified  except  by  the  local
          signer.  A new key is currently generated when ever a new signer
          certificate is needed.

   serial currently contains the serial number which will be used for  the
          next  issued  certificate.   It should not be modified except by
          the local signer.
