Could RHCS81 run under RHEL59?
by 安泱
Hi all,
service pki-ca start failed, in catalina.out:
Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/logging.properties read)
The same installation method is OK under RHEL58, but could not run under RHEL59.

will the new version of RHCS support RHEL6?
by 安泱
Hi all,
I'm a beginner of the dogtag certificate system, dogtag（RHCS）is a wonderful project, but I'm confused about RHCS, could you give any help?
The latest version of RHCS is 8.1, which is based on dogtag 8.1, it supports RHEL5.8, and in RHEL6, pki-ca 9.0.3 was included without the other 5 subsystems, could you show me the consideration why RHCS do not support RHEL6?
Is RHEL6 not secure enough or some other reasons？
Regards.

"Format" button never enabled in Enterprise Security Client
by Steve Ross
I'm a new user of the Dogtag Certificate System...
I am trying to create a certificate and write it to a smart card.
My problem is that my Enterprise Security Client (ESC) does not allow me
to format the smart card. When I insert the blank smart card, the ESC
GUI shows
Issuer = Unknown
Issued To = Unknown
Status = Unformatted
However, the "Format" button is disabled and remains so. Why? Is there
any configuration that I need to do in one of the PKI subsystems or ESC
itself?
When I instead insert a Common Access Card (CAC), the ESC GUI shows
Issuer = U.S Government
Issued To = <name>
Status = Enrolled
and ESC is able to display thethree certificates of the CAC. So, my
hardware/software is working to the extent that it can read another card.
I see the section in the Red Hat Certificate System (RHCS) 8.1
"Deployment, Planning, and Installation" guide that says:
The Certificate System subsystems have been tested using the
following tokens:
Gemalto TOP IM FIPS CY2 64K token, both as a smart card and
GemPCKey USB form factor key
Gemalto Cyberflex e-gate 32K token
Safenet 330J Java smart card
I also see the section of the RHCS "Managing Smart Cards with the
Enterprise Security Client" that says:
The Enterprise Security Client supports smart cards which are
JavaCard 2.1 or higher and Global
Platform 2.01-compliant and was tested using the following cards:
Safenet 330J Java smart cards
Gemalto 64K V2 tokens, both as a smart card and GemPCKey USB
form factor key
Gemalto GCx4 72K and TOPDLGX4 144K common access cards (CAC)
Oberthur ID One V5.2 common access cards (CAC)
Personal identity verification (PIV) cards, compliant with FIPS 201
The smart card that I'm using is none of the above, though it exceeds
the standards that the ESC manual describes.
Following are the details of my smart card, reader, and installed software:
Smart card:
J2A080 - NXP JAVA based smart card, 80k EEPROM
This is supposed to meet the standards JCOP 2.4.1, JC 2.2.2, and GP
2.1.1.
It is a new card and is not supposed to have any applets on it.
Smart card reader:
OmniKey 3121
Operating system:
CentOS 5.9
Software packages installed:
esc-1.1.0-14.el5.centos.1
pki-ca-1.3.6-1.el5
pki-tks-1.3.3-1.el5
pki-tps-1.3.1-1.el5
coolkey-1.1.0-15.el5
tomcat5-5.5.23-0jpp.40.el5_9
httpd-2.2.3-82.el5.centos
Thanks in advance for any help,

Announcing the release of Dogtag 10.0.5
by Ade Lee
The Dogtag team is proud to announce the fifth errata build for
Dogtag 10.0.
Builds are available for Fedora 18 and Fedora 19 in the updates-testing
repositories. Please try them out and provide karma to move them to the
F18 and F19 stable repositories. Karma can be provided at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates for each package.
== Build Versions ==
pki-core-10.0.5-1
pki-ra-10.0.5-1
pki-tps-10.0.5-1
dogtag-pki-10.0.5-1
dogtag-pki-theme-10.0.5-1
pki-console-10.0.5-1
== Highlights since Dogtag 10.0.4 ==
* Due to changes in systemd, restarting Dogtag 10 instances using
systemctl restart pki-tomcatd.target failed. Changes have been made to
the systemd startup configuration to ensure that this works correctly.
In addition, configuration has been added to require systemd to accept
an exit status of 143 (a correct exit status for the JVM) as valid, so
this exit value will no longer be reported in the system logs.
* Due to changes in the python-requests, a new exception (ProxyError)
was returned when attempting to connect to a server that is not yet
available. This affected pkispawn installation code when we wait for a
server to restart. The code has been modified to handle this (and
other) exceptions.
* In a case following a bad restart, the CS.cfg for an instance
appeared to be cleared or truncated. The code has been changed to not
write server status to the CS.cfg on startup, but rather to use an
in-memory variable.
* Fixed LDAP search filter code to no longer return certificates expired
for both reason 1 and reason 10 when searching only for reason 1.
== Detailed Changes since Dogtag 10.0.4 ==
alee (5):
#712 pki cert-find --revocationReason 1 finds certs expired for
reason 1 and reason 10
#714 CS.cfg cleared
#716 pki-tomcatd(a)pki-tomcat.service does not start when
pki-tomcatd.target is started
#717 Proxy error while getting status when spawning CA
#719 Incorrect value in CS,cfg for manager.ldif location
