You mean it tages ca.xml + ca.conf.template and outputs ca.conf? > 6. we create a function which can translate files (perhaps we include it > to OpenCA::TRIStrateCGI) > Any comments to these ideas?

I am not really sure on this last issue, do you plan to have static translation of the files, and save the results somewhere on disk, or do you plan to have dynamic translation, and translate on every load? Alternatively (if thats not enough options already), you could go somewhere inbetween, ie translate the files and cache them somewhere. -- Brian May <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by:Crypto Challenge is now open!
