Hi List-
I've been studying the openca-guide.pdf file in the openca-SNAP-20040730 tarball (Is this the latest non-CVS source? If not, where's the best place to get the tarballs with openca.org down?) and looking at the README and INSTALL files, and it's becoming clear that a typical test installation of the OpenCA software involves two separate server computers: one connected to a network (CA?) and the other NOT connected to a network (RA?). Since this will be my first installation and strictly for my own testing purposes, I don't need (or want) that degree of complexity. Is there some way to get the full functionality of OpenCA in a test environment by installing everything on one computer?
yes you can simply install everything on one system just use different directories for ca and pub stuff
you will then have full functionality as if both parts where on separate systems - the only thing thats different - the dataexchange between them would happen at the local filesystem (you have to change the path at config.xml usaly set to /dev/fd0)
you can even install ca and pub components to the same directory, then you don't have to do dataexchange for the first testing steps... (so no node interfaces is actually used)
i will send some scripts tomorrow - which can be used
to setup a simple testing system and also generates the necessary apache.conf entries - which can be simply included then
