I didn't give you the entire script...only the relevant portion but perhaps I did forget to give you the top part of my script... #!/bin/sh cd /usr/share/ssl/certs mkdir /etc/ssl I don't think it makes a difference whether you put the certs you generate in /etc/ssl or /etc/pki/tls or wherever, as long as the applications know where to find them. Simply cd into whichever directory openssl.cnf is located to generate the certs and copy them to wherever you choose. I thought the point was to show you the commands that I used to create the CA and then the certs themselves and those with / without keys. ---- > > First off, there is no /etc/ssl directory - I think this > is now /etc/pki > > Second, the openssl is looking for /usr/share/ssl/openssl.cnf > of which /etc/share/ssl is no longer there.
