Hi Rob, thanks for the reply. I've clarified inline:

Right, I know I need the root ca and the server cert (signed by said root
ca) both installed in the db. What I'm doing is this:

I have /opt/fedora-ds/alias set up as a symlink to alias-test1, alias-test2,
etc. I have a couple of these directories around for... um.... testing :)

What I want to confirm is whether or not I can use, for example, the cert
request I generated (using certutil -R) for the db files in alias-test1 for
the new db files created in alias-test2.


Thanks for the input.
brian.
