Description

Create an RSA public key pair and save to files.

The default for the filename to store the private key is rsa.priv. If no public key file is specified, its name will be derived from the filename for the private key (suffix .pub for public key or .cert for certificate). If a certificate authority is given (–cacert) the public key will be signed. In this case a subject (at least common name/issuer) and a private key (–cakey) is required. If only a subject is given, the public key will be self-signed.

For signing the public key the following subject attributes are supported:

  • CN, common-name, issuer: Common Name/Issuer
  • O, organization, org: Organization
  • OU, organizational-unit, org-unit: Organizational Unit
  • STREET (multiple): Street Address
  • POSTALCODE, postal-code (multiple): Postal Code
  • L, locality (multiple): Locality
  • S, province, (multiple): Province
  • C, country, (multiple): Country

Examples 


$ ocm create rsakeypair mandelsoft.priv mandelsoft.cert issuer=mandelsoft
