I meant to say that I don't want to deploy the CA cert to dozens of clients. So, forget the CRL, then... Because we have about 60 servers total. Now, /etc/openldap/cacerts/ is writable by root only and I'd have to do some serious expect/perl scripting to ssh into every machine, accept the key, su - root, scp the CA cert, log out. I really don't want to do this if I don't have to. So, are you saying I can use openSSL + linux openldap client to do this automagically? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
