I don't have sscep on my linux machine, do you know where I can get an
opensource rpm for the sscep client?

Thanks!

Hi Janet,

sorry for my late answer, I was out for a while.
Yes, on client side you need an scep client that will transfer you
certificate request to the openca server. I used SSCEP on linux /
openbsd and my cisco routers have an integrated scep client.

Kind regards, Matthias.
