Hi Harald,

first thanks a lot for this really good readme :)

Perhaps I should rewrite the section.

This is really interesting because I'm still using 0.9.7 only. I never
installed a 0.9.8.

Is flex installed on your system? If it is not installed then we don't
need it perhaps. If openca-sv doesn't depend on flex then we have to
remove the library form our makefiles permanently.

This is correct (the link is only to guide the user).

This is normally a problem with serials of the certificates. Which
serial has the certificate? The links are hardcoded.

Is there a cut and paste mistake in your mail?

The passphrase which you must use is the PIN which you entered during
the creation of the request. Therefore the passphrasedialog asks for the
user's password and not for the CA's one.

This mistake is very common. If somebody has a recommendation what we
could do to avoid this mistake then please write us.

It looks like you have a problem with the initial serial in
OPENCADIR/var/crypto/serial

... or you logged out and in or you have a writeprotection on your
floppy ... :)

One small hint, if you don't want to see the errormessage from a failed
LDAP-update then you can deactivate the LDAP during configuration or in
online.conf.

Thanks,

Michael
