You should be able to create a new CA with the scripts included in openssl:

$ /usr/local/ssl/misc/CA.pl -newca

Give it the appropriate name and enter appropriate info when prompted.

To address the problem raised by Sureshkumar, on a CentOS 5.1 system I did the following >

yum -y install openssl-perl

Run >
/etc/pki/tls/misc/CA.pl -newca

That will create the cakey.pem file in /etc/pki/CA/private

Then edit the file /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf and set

dir = /etc/pki/CA

On my Debian machine the command:

openssl ca -out itchy.pem -infiles itchy.csr

failed also. Since I’m thinking the same as a previous post (create CA) and I’m new to ssl and stuff, could someone indicate me how to do this?

Thanks in advance,

Eric

Thanks for a well written and very helpful tutorial.

Works well from most places but I think my workplace proxy is blocking access to googlmail on port 587.

Has anyone found a proxy tunnel solution?

On my Ubuntu box, this command failed

openssl ca -out itchy.pem -infiles itchy.csr

because openssl is unable to find the CA private key. I think I need to create a CA first.
