=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
crl2pkcs7 - Create a PKCS#7 structure from a CRL and certificates.
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<openssl> B<crl2pkcs7>
|
|
[B<-inform PEM|DER>]
|
|
[B<-outform PEM|DER>]
|
|
[B<-in filename>]
|
|
[B<-out filename>]
|
|
[B<-certfile filename>]
|
|
[B<-nocrl>]
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The B<crl2pkcs7> command takes an optional CRL and one or more
|
|
certificates and converts them into a PKCS#7 degenerate "certificates
|
|
only" structure.
|
|
|
|
=head1 COMMAND OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item B<-inform DER|PEM>
|
|
|
|
This specifies the CRL input format. B<DER> format is DER encoded CRL
|
|
structure.B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
|
|
the DER form with header and footer lines.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-outform DER|PEM>
|
|
|
|
This specifies the PKCS#7 structure output format. B<DER> format is DER
|
|
encoded PKCS#7 structure.B<PEM> (the default) is a base64 encoded version of
|
|
the DER form with header and footer lines.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-in filename>
|
|
|
|
This specifies the input filename to read a CRL from or standard input if this
|
|
option is not specified.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-out filename>
|
|
|
|
specifies the output filename to write the PKCS#7 structure to or standard
|
|
output by default.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-certfile filename>
|
|
|
|
specifies a filename containing one or more certificates in B<PEM> format.
|
|
All certificates in the file will be added to the PKCS#7 structure. This
|
|
option can be used more than once to read certificates form multiple
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-nocrl>
|
|
|
|
normally a CRL is included in the output file. With this option no CRL is
|
|
included in the output file and a CRL is not read from the input file.

=head1 EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
Create a PKCS#7 structure from a certificate and CRL:
|
|
|
|
openssl crl2pkcs7 -in crl.pem -certfile cert.pem -out p7.pem
|
|
|
|
Creates a PKCS#7 structure in DER format with no CRL from several
|
|
different certificates:
|
|
|
|
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile newcert.pem
|
|
-certfile demoCA/cacert.pem -outform DER -out p7.der
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
The output file is a PKCS#7 signed data structure containing no signers and
|
|
just certificates and an optional CRL.
|
|
|
|
This utility can be used to send certificates and CAs to Netscape as part of
|
|
the certificate enrollment process. This involves sending the DER encoded output
|
|
as MIME type application/x-x509-user-cert.
|
|
|
|
The B<PEM> encoded form with the header and footer lines removed can be used to
|
|
install user certificates and CAs in MSIE using the Xenroll control.
