Why no try the open source PKI book as a starter...

Hi All,

Would anyone kindly point me to literature that CLEARLY explains exactly
how:

Certificates and CRLs may be used in conjunction such that certificate
CSRs are generated, signed by an authority, then signed certs downloaded
and being used on a system.

At a later time, the certificate is revoked in the CRL, the CRL.pem file
is downloaded on the system, and then the corresponding cert becomes
unusable due to its mention in the CRL.

Is there a good place for me to educate myself on this whole mechanism,
and a place where it shows exactly how to implement all this with
examples... Oh I am running on Linux, with openssl 0.9.8g.

Thanks a bunch in advance.
