If only there was a certificate authority management tool that was convenient
to use from command line and through an API, so it could be made into
a company-wide service. There is this old tinyCA that comes with OpenVPN, but it's awful and can't do
much (I don't even remember if it could revoke a certificate). There are a few
instances of WWW-only CAs, and there are desktop/GUI applications. But command
line? /usr/bin/openssl only, and it's unwieldy. Even worse situation with
a CA library. People like to fetishize OpenSSH's CA (for both client keys and server keys),
but there still a lot to do before it becomes usable. (Though the same stands
for the traditional save-on-first-use method, honestly.) You're basically
proposing to deploy software that maybe will be usable in a few years, with
a big "maybe", because until now it haven't materialized. |
