However you have to run make install-scep to install the
scep-interface of openca.

When you initialize your pki you can - besides the ca key and cert -
create other certificates. Otherwise, you can also create a
certificate for the scep-interface after having initialized your pki.
In my case i generated a cert for my ra that i used for ssl in apache
and additional for the scep-interface.
Where you locate the certificate / key is your choice ;-) but you
shoul consider security and permissions. In my case I located the cert
and key two times on the server: one time in the apache-directories
and one time in an directory of the openca installation, but in a
production system i would not have done that ;-)

Kind regards, Matthias
