axa_make_cert
creates self-signed AXA
certificate, name.pem, and private key file,
name.key, where name has been
set with -u
. Name should be an
AXA user name or the name of an AXA server. The files are created in the
-S
certs directory.
-x
- enables debugging output.
-S
certsdir
- sets the target AXA SSL certificate to certsdir. By
default,
axa_make_cert
looks for a writable
$AXACONF/certs,
~/.axa/certs, or
/usr/local/etc/axa/certs. It tries to create a
directory in the same order if that search fails.
-l
days
- sets the lifetime of the certificate to days instead
of the default 3650.
-u
name
- sets the CN (common name) for the certificate. The CN identifies the AXA
user to a server or a server to an AXA client.
If set, AXACONF specifies the AXA configuration directory instead
of, ~/.axa or
/usr/local/etc/axa.
