| There is often a need to generate test certificates automatically using |
| a script. This is often a cause for confusion which can result in incorrect |
| CA certificates, obsolete V1 certificates or duplicate serial numbers. |
| The range of command line options can be daunting for a beginner. |
| |
| The mkcerts.sh script is an example of how to generate certificates |
| automatically using scripts. Example creates a root CA, an intermediate CA |
| signed by the root and several certificates signed by the intermediate CA. |
| |
| The script then creates an empty index.txt file and adds entries for the |
| certificates and generates a CRL. Then one certificate is revoked and a |
| second CRL generated. |
| |
| The script ocsprun.sh runs the test responder on port 8888 covering the |
| client certificates. |
| |
| The script ocspquery.sh queries the status of the certificates using the |
| test responder. |
