NAME pki --acert - Issue an attribute certificate
SYNOPSIS pki --acert [--in file] [--group membership] --issuerkey file|--issuerkeyid hex --issuercert file [--lifetime hours] [--not-before datetime] [--not-after datetime] [--serial hex] [--digest digest] [--rsa-padding padding] [--outform encoding] [--debug level]
pki --acert --options file
pki --acert -h | --help
DESCRIPTION This sub-command of pki(1) is used to issue an attribute certificate using an issuer certificate with its private key and the holder certificate.
OPTIONS -h, --help Print usage information with a summary of the available options.
-v, --debug level Set debug level, default: 1.
-+, --options file Read command line options from file.
-i, --in file Holder certificate to issue an attribute certificate for. If not given the certificate is read from STDIN.
-m, --group membership Group membership the attribute certificate shall certify. The specified group is included as a string. To include multiple groups, the option can be repeated.
-k, --issuerkey file Issuer private key file. Either this or --issuerkeyid is required.
-x, --issuerkeyid hex Smartcard or TPM issuer private key object handle in hex format with an optional h0x prefix. Either this or --issuerkey is required.
-c, --issuercert file Issuer certificate file. Required.
-l, --lifetime hours Hours the attribute certificate is valid, default: 24. Ignored if both an absolute start and end time are given.
-F, --not-before datetime Absolute time when the validity of the AC begins. The datetime strptime(3) format for the --not-before and --not-after options, default: %d.%m.%y %T
-s, --serial hex Serial number in hex. It is randomly allocated by default.
-g, --digest digest Digest to use for signature creation. One of md5, sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384, or sha512. The default is determined based on the type and size of the signature key.
-R, --rsa-padding padding Padding to use for RSA signatures. Either pkcs1 or pss, defaults to pkcs1.
-f, --outform encoding Encoding of the created certificate file. Either der (ASN.1 DER) or pem (Base64 PEM), defaults to der.
EXAMPLES To save repetitive typing, command line options can be stored in files. Lets assume acert.opt contains the following contents:
--issuercert aacert.der --issuerkey aakey.der --digest sha256 --lifetime 4
Then the following command can be used to issue an attribute certificate based on a holder certificate and the options above:
pki --acert --options acert.opt --in holder.der --group sales --group finance -f pem
