RE: Certificates and keys

Strange... I tried to recreate them but got this error:

 

[root@hammer]# vsd-mkca
vsd-mkca: VSD Root CA already exists.

 

Should I delete the .crt file that was created ( still no .key file though )

A suitable key should have been generated during the installation and placed in /etc/vsd/ssl.key...

 

You can recreate your CA by executing 'vsd-mkca' without any parameters to remove the whole certificate authority heirarchy. and prompt for new CA information. Note that this will remove all existing certificate authorities and sub-authorities effectively invalidating all previously generated and exported certificates - so don't perform this command lightly on an established system...

During install it generated a crt, but not a key.  Is there any way to regenerate them with new choices?

 

I'd love to use the Idaya tools, but I can't get them to connect at all.
