.TH mk-ca-bundle 1 "5 Jan 2013" "version 1.20" "mk-ca-bundle manual"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
mk-ca-bundle \- convert mozilla's certdata.txt to PEM format
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
mk-ca-bundle [bilnqtuv]
|
|
.I [outputfile]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The mk-ca-bundle tool downloads the certdata.txt file from Mozilla's source
|
|
tree over HTTP, then parses certdata.txt and extracts CA Root Certificates
|
|
into PEM format. These are then processed with the OpenSSL commandline tool
|
|
to produce the final ca-bundle file.
|
|
|
|
The default \fIoutputfile\fP name is \fBca-bundle.crt\fP. By setting it to '-'
|
|
(a single dash) you will get the output sent to STDOUT instead of a file.
|
|
|
|
The PEM format this scripts uses for output makes the result readily available
|
|
for use by just about all OpenSSL or GnuTLS powered applications, such as
|
|
curl, wget and more.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
The following options are supported:
|
|
.IP -b
|
|
backup an existing version of \fIoutputfilename\fP
|
|
.IP -d [name]
|
|
specify which Mozilla tree to pull certdata.txt from (or a custom URL). Valid
|
|
names are: aurora, beta, central, mozilla, nss, release (default). They are
|
|
shortcuts for which source tree to get the cert data from.
|
|
.IP -f
|
|
force rebuild even if certdata.txt is current (Added in version 1.17)
|
|
.IP -i
|
|
print version info about used modules
|
|
.IP -l
|
|
print license info about certdata.txt
|
|
.IP -n
|
|
no download of certdata.txt (to use existing)
|
|
.IP -q
|
|
be really quiet (no progress output at all)
|
|
.IP -t
|
|
include plain text listing of certificates
|
|
.IP -u
|
|
unlink (remove) certdata.txt after processing
|
|
.IP -v
|
|
be verbose and print out processed CAs
|
|
.SH EXIT STATUS
|
|
Returns 0 on success. Returns 1 if it fails to download data.
|

.SH HISTORY
|
|
\fBmk-ca-bundle\fP is a command line tool that is shipped as part of every
|
|
curl and libcurl release (see http://curl.haxx.se/). It was originally based
|
|
on the parse-certs script written by Roland Krikava and was later much
|
|
improved by Guenter Knauf. This manual page was initially written by Jan
|
|
Schaumann \&<jschauma@netmeister.org>.
