NAME
|
||
|
|
renew-cert.sh - renew a previously generated cert for another year
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
renew-cert.sh /path/to/certificate
|
||
|
|
renew-cert.sh <hostname>
|
||
|
|
renew-cert.sh <username>

|
||
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
This script renews a certificate for another 365 days from it's current
|
||
|
|
end-date. It does some interesting hackery to re-sign the certificate
|
||
|
|
request generated when the certificate was initially signed, using the
|
||
|
|
same key-pair and the same serial, so that S/MIME encrypted e-mail and
|
||
|
|
previously signed code does not become unusable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OPTIONS
|
||
|
|
This script takes no options.
