ARGUMENTS
- gnutls_x509_crt_t crt
- a certificate of type gnutls_x509_crt_t
- gnutls_x509_crt_t issuer
- is the certificate of the certificate issuer
- gnutls_privkey_t issuer_key
- holds the issuer's private key
- gnutls_digest_algorithm_t dig
- The message digest to use, GNUTLS_DIG_SHA1 is a safe choice
- unsigned int flags
- must be 0
DESCRIPTION
This function will sign the certificate with the issuer's private key, and will copy the issuer's information into the certificate.This must be the last step in a certificate generation since all the previously set parameters are now signed.
