_certmaster -- it hands out SSL certs!_ read more at: [Original Fedora Project Page](https://fedorahosted.org/certmaster/) [Original Fedora Repo](http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=certmaster.git;a=summary) --- ## About this fork _certmaster -- it hands out SSL certs from multiple CAs !!!_ ### Multiple CA support This certmaster fork introduces a new '--ca' argument for specifying an alternative certificate authority. This allows one certmaster instance to supply certs from multiple authorities instead of having a separate certmaster instance for each certificate authority you are using. If you don't want to use multiple CA's, this fork should act just like the parent certmaster project from Fedora - you should be able to upgrade your existing certmaster to this version, and it will continue to server your existing certs. If you want to add additional certificate authorities, include a section to your certmaster.conf file as per below for each CA, using a different name and set of directories for each CA. [ca:name] autosign = yes_or_no cadir = /path/to/cadir cert_dir = /path/to/cert_dir certroot = /path/to/certroot csrroot = /path/to/csrroot Then to use the new CA, include the argument '--ca=name' in your list of certmaster-ca arguments to use the 'name' CA. Likewise, when requesting certs from the new CA, include a section of the following form in your minion.conf file: [ca:name] cert_dir = /path/to/cert_dir Then include the argument '--ca=name' in your certmaster-request commands to request a cert from the 'name' CA. If the '--ca' argument is not given, then the default CA, as defined by the autosign, cadir, cert_dir, certroot, and csrroot options from the main section of certmaster.conf or minion.conf is used. ### Functional Tests This fork introduces some functional tests using the [shUnit2 framework](https://code.google.com/p/shunit2/wiki/ProjectInfo). **NOTE THESE TESTS ARE DESTRUCTIVE SO DON'T RUN THEM ON YOUR LIVE CERTMASTER HOST** The tests overwrite the /etc/certmaster/certmaster.conf and /etc/certmaster/minion.conf files, and delete the cert data directories, so only run these tests on a test server / VM / docker image, not on your live production certmaster instance. ### Misc Changes + 'certmaster-ca --version' reads /etc/certmaste/version instead of func's version file + certmaster-sync doesn't error out if func if not present + switched README to README.md
