Hi Johnny,
I think you are talking not about the certifcate but about the private key of the CA. You are unable to extract this von the nCipher - thats waht is build for.
But there are some ppl on the list currently dealing with nCipher Support, so perhaps you can reuse the nCipher Hardware and the cert in OpenCA.

Hello Everybody,
I have my CA root certificate, the one that I have used to issue a lot of comercial certificates, I have this certificate stored in an ncipher, the question is: How can I retrieve that certificate from OpenCA, to start using OpenCA with that CA root certificate instead of creating a new one using the initialization steps??
The question is because the certificate is stored in a n-cipher, they are using commercial software running on MS Windows 2000 server, and they wanto to switch to OpenCA and Linux, The idea we have is: to make a backup of the CA root certificate to Luna CA 3 (because this HSM is fully supported by OpenCA, isn't it?) and then, once the certificate is in the new HSM (read it as Luna CA3) start using it with OpenCA, without having to start all the initialization steps.
Is this possible?? How can I do that??
Thanks a lot, Johnny
