I've been researching how to set up a private certificate authority for an intranet, and one of the tools I read about is tinyca. The official web site according to Google and Wikipedia is http://www.sm-zone.net/. This site appears to be done, and it's not just me (http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/www.sm-zone.net). Has the site moved recently? Or is something else going on with the project?
Are there other simple tools for creating a private CA that people recommend instead?
Thanks.
Private CA (Private certification authority) is an enterprise-specific certification authority that functions like a publicly-trusted CA. Essentially, an enterprise creates its own private base certificate which can issue other private certificates for internal servers and users.
step-ca is an online Certificate Authority (CA) for secure, automated X. 509 and SSH certificate management. It's the server counterpart to step CLI.
Try xca - can generate proper X.509 v3 certificates, has templates for CA, server and client software, can generate CRL - pretty nice and solid software.
Though this question is old, it never received a real answer.
Actually tinyCA was adopted by a new developer and is now available on its new homepage https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/tinyca.
