If 'openssl: command not found' is the error, then it's not finding the openssl binary. Make sure it's in your $PATH. (Fixing this will make CA.sh -newca work properly, which will make the rest of the steps work properly.) For a user-specific installation of OpenSSL, I usually put the binary in ~/bin and the share library in ~/lib, and in my .profile add the lines # add personal search directories here PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH # and just in case they're not properly exported... export PATH export LD_LIBRARY_PATH -Kyle H ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
