pki-ca - Certificate System - Certificate Authority

Vendor: Scientific Linux
Description:
The Certificate Authority (CA) is a required PKI subsystem which issues,
renews, revokes, and publishes certificates as well as compiling and
publishing Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs).

The Certificate Authority can be configured as a self-signing Certificate
Authority, where it is the root CA, or it can act as a subordinate CA,
where it obtains its own signing certificate from a public CA.

This package is one of the top-level java-based Tomcat PKI subsystems
provided by the PKI Core used by the Certificate System.


==================================
||  ABOUT "CERTIFICATE SYSTEM"  ||
==================================

Certificate System (CS) is an enterprise software system designed
to manage enterprise Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) deployments.

PKI Core contains ALL top-level java-based Tomcat PKI components:

  * pki-symkey
  * pki-base
  * pki-tools
  * pki-selinux (f17 only)
  * pki-server
  * pki-ca
  * pki-kra  (fedora only)
  * pki-ocsp (fedora only)
  * pki-tks  (fedora only)
  * pki-javadoc

which comprise the following corresponding PKI subsystems:

  * Certificate Authority (CA)
  * Data Recovery Manager (DRM) (fedora only)
  * Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) Manager (fedora only)
  * Token Key Service (TKS) (fedora only)

For deployment purposes, PKI Core contains fundamental packages
required by BOTH native-based Apache AND java-based Tomcat
Certificate System instances consisting of the following components:

  * pki-tools
  * pki-selinux (f17 only)

Additionally, PKI Core contains the following fundamental packages
required ONLY by ALL java-based Tomcat Certificate System instances:

  * pki-symkey
  * pki-base
  * pki-tools
  * pki-server

PKI Core also includes the following components:

  * pki-javadoc

Finally, if Certificate System is being deployed as an individual or
set of standalone rather than embedded server(s)/service(s), it is
strongly recommended (though not explicitly required) to include at
least one PKI Theme package:

  * dogtag-pki-theme (Dogtag Certificate System deployments)
    * dogtag-pki-server-theme
  * redhat-pki-server-theme (Red Hat Certificate System deployments)
    * redhat-pki-server-theme
  * customized pki theme (Customized Certificate System deployments)
    * <customized>-pki-server-theme

  NOTE:  As a convenience for standalone deployments, top-level meta
         packages may be provided which bind a particular theme to
         these certificate server packages.
