Hi, yesterday evening I run issueCertificate of OpenCA v0.9 successfully for the first time. Perhaps you are smiling about this but here is a small list with the new features: * public keys are checked to be unique * PINs can be used from the request or automatically generated * DN configuration * encrypted and signed PIN-mail * role-support * every role has it's own extfile and openssl configfile * if issueCertificate crashs before the cert was stored in the database then the old openssl state will be recovered * email subjAltName but not in the DN
I hope we need no more new features so we can start serious testing. I will start with: general: new OpenCA::DBI (smaller and faster) 1. issuing certs 2. CRRs 3. RBAC The new installationcode in OpenCA v0.9 allows the creation of snapshots by yourself. You must only do the following: * download openca-0.9 from the cvs * cd openca-0.9 * ./Config or ./configure --with-your-own-configuration * make * make install-ca install-ext Please have a look into Config because it shows you a configuration which places ALL FILES below /usr/local/openca. So you can remove the hole software via "rm -rf /usr/local/openca" including the perlmodules and binaries. If you want to fix a bug please write a mail to me or a mailing list and please do not check in the bug into the bugtrackingsystem on Sourceforge because we use it actually to track the errors of v0.8. If you check in a bug on Sourceforge please mark it clearly that you mean OpenCA v0.9. Be warned - this is a status message only. Don't switch from OpenCA v0.8 to v0.9. The major advantages will be RBAC, CRRs and a very good installation but only the installation is in the beta-phase.
