Hello,
using debian sarge, latest snap openca from CVS, i386.
Two things - first I had some problems with permissions
for openca.

When I set with compilation httpd user and group values,
some things are installed and chmod'ed to this user, and that's fine.
However I noticed that my web server (running on users I set),
is unable to perform some actions related to writing files in
openca directories. When I set -R g+w on some directories this was
solved. So in my opinion file permissions  with make install-*
should be reviewed.

Second thing - I noticed, that there are some problems with date/time
settings - openca in some cases writes its temporary data to directories
like time/YYYY/MM/DD/hh/mm(..) and similar. This probably isn't bad idea,
however I noticed (because of problem mentioned above), that time "for
which" directory is used/created does not correspond to my system time.
While I use time zone CET + 1 hour, the directory which is used by openca
is more like CET -1 hour (looks like openca uses for directories time
which is exactly two hours earlier than system time). Don't know whether
this is a bug or whether this is intentionally developed.

Both of these are most likely/probably debian(sarge/sid) specific
problems, I think.

Q: Do You have some documentation about filesystem permissions for
openca nodes files? I mean some information about which files/directories
should be SUID'ed, which should be owned by webserver user, and so on..,
to make me able that I have all permissions set correctly. Of course some
files like cgi scripts doesn't need detailed permissions listed in docs,
however some other (like e.g. certs) I'd be glad to see :)

Regards
P.
