Hi, What would be the unique names with which I can store CA certificates in file system? I understand that issuer-id and serial number are the unique identifiers for a certificate. But using this name for a certificate file name makes it very long and also introduces some characters like "@,=" etc, which I consider undesirable for file naming. I considered using serial number, but one more thing I want to achieve is that by looking at the file name I should be able to identify what certificate it actually is. Eg: verisign-subca3.pem would mean that this is the 3rd subordinate CA from verisign. These certificates are copied to the filesystem by my application and I need to generate these names from the certificates and also make sure that each name is unique and does not clash in any way and also in compliance with the UNIX file naming standards.
