I installed SNAP-20020123 .

<RA CONFIGURATION>

There are several problems which I have encountered. I hope that reporting
them helps to get them fixed! Let me know what I can do to provide more
detailed information about the errors.  One thing that would be nice would
be to enable DEBUG in the RA server, like there is in the CA server.

1. Most important. I still cannot sign requests as the RA.  I have tried
several strategies for doing so.
ERROR: Sign is needed to Proceed
LOCATION: RA Server - Certificate Requests - RA Choice - Pending Requests -
Certificate Request - Approve Request
(and Public server -- Test certificate)

I am in the processes of signing a certificate using OpenSSL on the command
line so that I can test the problem further.  I dumped the request from the
mysql database to a text file to be able to manipulate it.

But, I wonder if there isn't a better way to solve this 'chicken and egg'
problem of the RA not recognizing the root CA for certificate requests that
are intended to be signing requests.

I guess the other way around this is to turn off the signing requirement for
the RA. How do I do this?

The other issue which may be causing this problem is that I am NOT running
an OpenLDAP server. And I have not yet been able to successfully connect
OpenCA to the iPlanet LDAP Server.

2. Cannot issue certificate from CA.
ERROR: Valid CA Secret Key Password not accepted.
LOCATION: CA - Information - Certificate Requests - Pending Requests -
Certificate Request - Waiting for Approval - Issue Certificate

This is another way I though to circumvent the RA 'Sign is needed to
proceed' error. But it doesn't work either.

3. Cannot request a certificate using Internet Explorer.
ERROR: Javascript -
Line: 91
Object: Expected
Code: 0
URL: http://pca.tcs.tulane.edu/cgi-public/pki?cmd-ie_req

LOCATION: Public Server - Request a Certificate - IE Request - IE
Certificate Request - IE Certificate Confirm


As always, thanks for the support and dedication to this very important
project!
