一、配置OPENSSL
[root@test1 /]# rpm -qa|grep openssl
openssl-1.0.0-20.el6_2.5.i686
[root@test1 /]# cd /etc/pki/tls
[root@test1 tls]# ls
cert.pem certs misc openssl.cnf private
[root@test1 tls]# vim openssl.cnf
####################################################################
[ CA_default ]
dir = /etc/pki/CA # Where everything is kept （CA中心的目录）
certs = $dir/certs # Where the issued certs are kept (证书保存目录）
crl_dir = $dir/crl # Where the issued crl are kept (被吊销证书的目录)
database = $dir/index.txt # database index file. (证书索引文件)
#unique_subject = no # Set to 'no' to allow creation of
# several ctificates with same subject.
new_certs_dir = $dir/newcerts # default place for new certs.(经过CA中心签名的证书备份目录)
certificate = $dir/my-ca.crt # The CA certificate （CA的公钥文件名）
serial = $dir/serial # The current serial number （CA中心的颁发证书序列号）
crlnumber = $dir/crlnumber # the current crl number （已吊销证书序列号）
# must be commented out to leave a V1 CRL
crl = $dir/my-ca.crl # The current CRL （证书吊销列表）
private_key = $dir/private/my-ca.key # The private key （CA私钥文件）
RANDFILE = $dir/private/.rand # private random number file
x509_extensions = usr_cert # The extentions to add to the cert
default_days = 365 # how long to certify for （证书有效期）
default_crl_days= 30 # how long before next CRL
default_md = default # use public key default MD
preserve = no # keep passed DN ordering
[ policy_match ] #此段为证书相关信息选项，其中match指定的项，要求被签名证书一定要与CA的对应项一致。
countryName = match
stateOrProvinceName = match
organizationName = match
organizationalUnitName = optional
commonName = supplied
emailAddress = optional
#
[ req_distinguished_name ]
countryName = Country Name (2 letter code)
countryName_default = CN （国家代码需要自己修改）
countryName_min = 2
countryName_max = 2
stateOrProvinceName = State or Province Name (full name)
stateOrProvinceName_default = Hebei （州或省名需要自己修改）
localityName = Locality Name (eg, city)
localityName_default = Beijing （地点名称需要自己修改）
0.organizationName = Organization Name (eg, company)
0.organizationName_default = Tianli Company (组织或公司名需要自己修改)
[root@test1 tls]# cd ../CA/
[root@test1 CA]# ls
certs crl newcerts private
注：需要有这几个目录，如果没有可以自己新建
[root@test1 CA]# touch index.txt
[root@test1 CA]# echo "00"> serial
[root@test1 CA]# ls
certs crl index.txt newcerts private serial
二、创建密钥过程
创建私钥
[root@test1 CA]#(umask 077;openssl genrsa -out private/my-ca.key -des3 2048)
Generating RSA private key, 2048 bit long modulus
............................................................+++
..........+++
e is 65537 (0x10001)
Enter pass phrase for private/my-ca.key:
Verifying - Enter pass phrase for private/my-ca.key:
由私钥生成公钥
[root@test1 CA]#openssl req -new -x509 -key private/my-ca.key -days 365 > my-ca.crt
Enter pass phrase for private/my-ca.key:
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [CN]:CN
State or Province Name (full name) []:Hebei
Locality Name (eg, city) [Beijing]:Beijing
Organization Name (eg, company) [Default Company Ltd]:Tianli Company
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:
Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:test1
Email Address []:
[root@test1 CA]# ls
certs crl index.txt my-ca.crt newcerts private serial
三、客户端验证CA服务
主机端(192.168.1.130)上：
[root@test1 CA]#yum -y install httpd
[root@test1 CA]#service httpd start
[root@test1 CA]#mkdir -p /var/www/html/yum
[root@test1 CA]#cp my-ca.crt /var/www/html/yum 将my-ca.crt,即公钥放到http服务器，供其他人下载
另外客户端(192.168.1.117)上：
[root@test2 Desktop]#openssl genrsa 1024 > test2.key
Generating RSA private key, 1024 bit long modulus
.....................++++++
.......++++++
e is 65537 (0x10001)
[root@test2 Desktop]#openssl req -new -key test2.key -out dovecot.csr
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
For some fields there will be a default value,
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
-----
Country Name (2 letter code) [XX]:CN
State or Province Name (full name) []:Hebei
Locality Name (eg, city) [Default City]:Beijing
Organization Name (eg, company) [Default Company Ltd]:Tianli Company
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:
Common Name (eg, your name or your server's hostname) []:test2
Email Address []:
Please enter the following 'extra' attributes
to be sent with your certificate request
A challenge password []:
An optional company name []:
[root@test2 Desktop]# scp dovecot.csr root@192.168.1.130:/root/
root@192.168.1.130's password:
dovecot.csr 100% 668 0.7KB/s 00:00
四、服务端签发CA证书
在CA认证服务器上
[root@test1 ~]# openssl ca -in dovecot.csr -out dovecot.cst
Using configuration from /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase for /etc/pki/CA/private/my-ca.key:
Check that the request matches the signature
Signature ok
Certificate Details:
Serial Number: 1 (0x1)
Validity
Not Before: Jan 22 10:44:36 2013 GMT
Not After : Jan 22 10:44:36 2014 GMT
Subject:
countryName = CN
stateOrProvinceName = Hebei
organizationName = Tianli Company
commonName = test2
X509v3 extensions:
X509v3 Basic Constraints:
CA:FALSE
Netscape Comment:
OpenSSL Generated Certificate
X509v3 Subject Key Identifier:
56:69:58:12:67:C7:FC:9E:AC:70:1D:2A:2C:56:A4:E1:61:97:B2:23
X509v3 Authority Key Identifier:
keyid:4C:45:25:5F:60:7F:F8:6E:6F:B4:53:C4:FB:BD:A3:C6:82:AE:2A:62
Certificate is to be certified until Jan 22 10:44:36 2014 GMT (365 days)
Sign the certificate? [y/n]:y
1 out of 1 certificate requests certified, commit? [y/n]y
Write out database with 1 new entries
Data Base Updated
最后签发成功。
补充：在签发证书的过程中容易出现的两个问题
[root@test1 ~]# openssl ca -in dovecot.csr -out dovecot.cst
Using configuration from /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase for /etc/pki/CA/private/my-ca.key:
unable to load number from /etc/pki/CA/serial
error while loading serial number
3078239980:error:0D066096:asn1 encoding routines:a2i_ASN1_INTEGER:short line:f_int.c:215:
提示error while loading serial number，一般是因为serial文件中没有赋初值
解决办法
[root@test1 ~]#cd /etc/pki/CA
[root@test1 CA]# echo "00" >serial
[root@test1 CA]# cat serial
00
还有一个问题在CA签名时，最后出现failed to update database错误
[root@test1 ~]#openssl ca -in dovecot.csr -out dovecot.crt
Using configuration from /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase for /etc/pki/CA/private/my-ca.key:
Check that the request matches the signature
Signature ok
Certificate Details:
Serial Number: 2 (0x2)
Validity
Not Before: Jan 23 02:23:39 2013 GMT
Not After : Jan 23 02:23:39 2014 GMT
Subject:
countryName = CN
stateOrProvinceName = Hebei
organizationName = Tianli Company
commonName = test2
X509v3 extensions:
X509v3 Basic Constraints:
CA:FALSE
Netscape Comment:
OpenSSL Generated Certificate
X509v3 Subject Key Identifier:
96:86:28:B7:ED:2E:96:79:32:88:7E:C3:23:37:02:BC:43:1C:76:87
X509v3 Authority Key Identifier:
keyid:4C:45:25:5F:60:7F:F8:6E:6F:B4:53:C4:FB:BD:A3:C6:82:AE:2A:62
Certificate is to be certified until Jan 23 02:23:39 2014 GMT (365 days)
Sign the certificate? [y/n]:y
1 out of 1 certificate requests certified, commit? [y/n]y
Write out database with 1 new entries
Data Base Updated
Certificate is to be certified until Jan 23 02:17:38 2014 GMT (365 days)
Sign the certificate? [y/n]:y
failed to update database
TXT_DB error number 2
遇到这个错误，只需要清空/etc/pki/CA/index.txt的内容再签发就可以成功了。
吊销证书：
[root@test1 ~]# openssl ca -revoke my-ca.crt
Using configuration from /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase for /etc/pki/CA/private/my-ca.key:
Adding Entry with serial number B443BCCFCD08C1CD to DB for /C=CN/ST=Hebei/L=Beijing/O=Default Company Ltd/CN=test1
Revoking Certificate B443BCCFCD08C1CD.
Data Base Updated
生成吊销证书列表
[root@test1 ~]# openssl ca -gencrl -out my-ca.crl
Using configuration from /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase for /etc/pki/CA/private/my-ca.key:
unable to load number from /etc/pki/CA/crlnumber
error while loading CRL number
3079087852:error:0D066096:asn1 encoding routines:a2i_ASN1_INTEGER:short line:f_int.c:215:
出现error while loading CRL number，解决办法给crlnumber赋值
[root@test1 ~]# echo "00" >/etc/pki/CA/crlnumber
[root@test1 ~]# openssl ca -gencrl -out my-ca.crl
Using configuration from /etc/pki/tls/openssl.cnf
Enter pass phrase for /etc/pki/CA/private/my-ca.key:
[root@test1 ~]# ls
anaconda-ks.cfg dovecot.csr install.log my-ca.crl Public
dead.letter dovecot.cst install.log.syslog my-ca.crt Templates
Desktop dovecot.pem Music test2.key
Documents Downloads Pictures Videos
[root@test1 ~]# cat my-ca.crl
