Ok, but how should I handle the different keyUsage in certification process?


The OpenCA way of doing this is to have a different "Role" for each certificate type. So I would have a "Sign" role where the key usage is set to: keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature extendedKeyUsage: TLS Web client authentication, E-mail protection

and a "Encrypt" role where the key usage is set to:
keyUsage = keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment, keyAgreement


OK, done it this way using two different roles and it worked.

Note for ereryone who is editing rbac/roles.xml on the ra/pub machine: If you exchange data from your ca to your ra with "All" (includes configuration), your edited roles.xml will be replaced by the roles.xml of the ca. So folks, if your losing mind (like me) because of the appearance of an old roles.xml, keep in mind to edit the roles.xml on the ca and then export the configuration to the ra. ;-)
