tinyca2 – Very simple Certification Authority

Synopsis

tinyca2

Description

This manual page documents briefly the tinyca2 command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page and was modified for Foobar Linux.

tinyca2 is a very simple Certification Authority. It features a graphical interface to create Certificate Requests, sign them with the key of the Certificate Authority and export the signed certificate and the corresponding keys in various formats.

On first time, run with –ManageCA to create information for a new Certificate Authority.
