Hello everybody,
Can anyone tell me which RFC defines X.509v3 certificates? And if OpenCA fits to that standard?
openca uses openssl, openssl implents the cryptographic standards we 'just' provide an interface to put at abstract...
which enables you, to implement a certain pki structure and policy (workflow, who does what at which step... and so on)
so openssl provides the technology - we provide the logic or better the framework for the logic/workflow above
openssl supports v3 certificates, you can setup the needed attributes at the extension files inside the etc structure...
this page gives a quite good overview of relevant and available rfcs for x509 ;o) http://www.networksorcery.com/enp/data/x509.htm
so in general you wanna look at: [RFC 2459] Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile. * Obsoleted by: RFC 3280.
means read: RFC 3280 for up to date informations... since 2459 is from 1999 or something
greetings dalini
