I will work on a script to check the newly signed certificates and
using a cronjob send email through an smtp relay server.
Would it be worth to try to upgrade to 1.0.2? how would it comply with
the current database used by 0.9.2.5? it just seems like to much
work..

BTW, trying to start the openca 1.0.2. i get this error:
Starting OpenCA ... Logging is not initialized.
Configuration error: Missing Configuration Keyword : CgiCmdsPath
Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/etc/openca/openca_start line 65.
OK
zayn...@tengritag:/usr/local/etc/openca$

Cant find the problem related.. double checked my config.xml but cant
see the issue.

Thanks again for your reply.
