RE: CA Issues

[Paddy Tollan <ptollan@hotmail.com>]

Hi
first sorry for the HTML the output from the output of ls -l /root/CA/* is

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1419 cacert.pem
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 index.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 887 key.pem
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 newcerts
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2110 openssl.cnf
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 private
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 875 req.pem
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3 serial 

ls -l /root/CA/private* produces:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 963 cakey.pem

I am using http://www.eclectica.ca/howto/ssl-cert-howto.php as my template
