getcert-refresh(1)


NAME

   getcert

SYNOPSIS

   getcert refresh [options]

DESCRIPTION

   Forces  certmonger  to immediately check on the status of an enrollment
   request for which it was either unable to contact a CA or for which  it
   is waiting for the CA.

SPECIFYING REQUESTS BY NICKNAME

   -i NAME
          Check  on  the  status  of  the  signing  request which has this
          nickname.  If this option is not specified, and a tracking entry
          which   matches   the  certificate  storage  options  which  are
          specified already exists, that  entry  will  be  used.   If  not
          specified,  the  location of the certificate should be specified
          with either a combination of the -d and -n options, or with  the
          -f option.

SPECIFYING REQUESTS BY CERTIFICATE LOCATION

   -d DIR The  certificate  is  in  the  NSS  database  in  the  specified
          directory.

   -n NAME
          The certificate in the  NSS  database  named  with  -d  has  the
          specified nickname.  Only valid with -d.

   -t TOKEN
          If  the  NSS  database  has  more  than one token available, the
          certificate is stored in this token.  This argument only  rarely
          needs to be specified.  Only valid with -d.

   -f FILE
          The certificate is stored in the named file.

OPTIONS

   -a     Refresh  information  about  all  requests for which the service
          will need to attempt to contact the CA again.
