Re: [Pki-users] Manually Replacing Server Certificates + Profiles
Patrick:
I did some quick digging and came up with a bit of info that might help.
It looks like the profiles that actually get used by the configuration wizard to create
subsystems are private to that process. You can though, view these profiles in the
directory:
/var/lib/pki-ca/conf/*.profile
The differences between these profiles and the regular CA profiles can be compared to
possibly explain what you are seeing with the certs that get output.

Manually Replacing Server Certificates + Profiles
Using CS 8.0,
I'm interested in replacing (not renewing) all the server certificates for every
subsystem (CA,TKS,DRM,TPS).
The solution I had planned on using was to painstakingly use certutil to generate
certificate requests, sign then, and import them back into the subsystem cert db with
identical cert nicknames.
Is there an easier way to do this (other than reinstalling+rerunning the create wizard)? I
can attempt to use pkiconsole to replace certificates and automatically send them to the
CA's ee page, but that seems to be erroring repeatedly.
Using the certutil method, I'm unsure of which CA profiles to use when signing some of
the server certificates certificates. For example, when replacing the TKS's
'subsystemCert' or 'Server-Cert' using the CA's 'manual server
certificate enrollment' profile, I don't a get a cert with identical extensions as
the original TKS 'subsytem cert'. Which profile does the CA use at TKS
creation-time for these certs?
Thanks
