But there's one question left. What about the ra-operator certificate ?
I generated it, when I initialized the ca. But when I want to install it
on the ra-machine, its not possible .... I mentioned this behaviour
before. If I try to download the certificate, its not the ra-operators
one that is shown, but the last user certificate that was issued. How do
I get the ra-operators certificate in my browser on the ra machine ?

An RA Operator certificate is exactly this, a user certificate giving
an individual the necessary credentials to act as Registration Officer.
That is clear now. But when I initialized the CA I created an RA-Operator certificate for a person let me call him "Bert Bube". I used the "ra-operator role" template for that one.

Then for testing reason I began to request, sign and issue several certificates, for example with the existing template "user" or selfgenerated templates for example for ssl-client-authentication and efs. This way I issued round 10 certificates. The last "normal" user certificate I issued for "Anna Aschenberger".
I did not use an ra-operator role here.

Then something lightened my brain and I decided to install the previously generated ra-operator certificate on the ra-machine. So I went to the ca, Initialization->Create the initial RA certificate->Handle the certificate and expected to find Bert Bube's certificate here but found "Anna Aschenbergers" one.

I'm sure its an intended behaviour, but I dont understand it. Do I need to issue another ra-operator certificate using a browser on the ra connecting to the ca ?
