Guys, I thought I would share this with you...

I have now gone from a self signed CA issuing certificates to a self signed 
root CA, issuing Sub CA certs, and the sub CA issuing certs model.

All well and good until I try and configure Apache for client authentication.

I can not get this simple thing to work. I have been discussing the problems 
with the mod_ssl list and it seems as though i am configuring Apache 
correctly. I have tested on three seperate environments running two flavours 
of Linux. Consistantly I get the problem:
"mod_ssl: Certificate Verification Error (24): invalid CA certificate".

I was wondering if any of you have used OpenCA to generate Root and Sub CA's 
and then used client authentication to access the sub CA RA component and if 
you had any troubles.

All the CA certificates validate using:

"openssl verify...." command.

The only thing I can think is that I set the extended key usage flags in the 
root CA, but surely this can't have this affect... Can it ?

Chris...
