I'm interested in the potential capabilities and cost savings of openCA. I'm very new to this project so any help is very appreciated.
 
I want to setup a server that will validate issued certificates. I.e. I create a server certificate for an imap server or for mod_ssl using openssl-9.6.a. Inside the certificate I want to specify that the server at www.myca.com issued the certificates.
 
Users who connect to my ssl web page can then view the certificate and validate it against the CA running at   www.myca.com.
 
For now I want to keep things simple and create the certificates using openssl. I want to just configure the CA server at www.myca.com to know where the certificates are stored and validate certificates from user validation requests..
 
What is the easiest way of doing this with openCA?
Do I only need to configure the RA Server and not have a public web server or a CA server??
 
Thanks in advance for any advise.
