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

The signed certificate is only half of what you need. You also need the
private key. Without more information on what you're trying to do I
can't really make a recommendation.


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.
