-        How to setup your very own Cert-O-Matic Root CA server
-
-The program certcgi is part of a small test CA that is used inside 
-Netscape by the NSS development team.  That CA is affectionately known
-as "Cert-O-Matic" or "Cert-O-Matic II".  It presently runs on a server
-named interzone.mcom.com inside Netscape's firewall.
-
-If you wish to setup your own Cert-O-Matic, here are directions.
-
-Disclaimer:  This program does not follow good practices for root CAs.
-It should be used only for playing/testing and never for production use.
-Remember, you've been warned!
-
-Cert-O-Matic consists of some html files, shell scripts, one executable
-program that uses NSS and NSPR, the usual set of NSS .db files, and a file
-in which to remember the serial number of the last cert issued.  The 
-html files and the source to the executable program are in this directory.
-Sample shell scripts are shown below.  
-
-The shell scripts and executable program run as CGI "scripts".  The
-entire thing runs on an ordinary http web server.  It would also run on
-an https web server.  The shell scripts and html files must be
-customized for the server on which they run.
-
-The package assumes you have a "document root" directory $DOCROOT, and a
-"cgi-bin" directory $CGIBIN.  In this example, the document root is
-assumed to be located in /var/www/htdocs, and the cgi-bin directory in
-/var/www/cgi-bin.
-
-The server is assumed to run all cgi scripts as the user "nobody".
-The names of the cgi scripts run directly by the server all end in .cgi
-because some servers like it that way.
-
-Instructions:
-
-- Create directory $DOCROOT/certomatic
-- Copy the following files from nss/cmd/certcgi to $DOCROOT/certomatic
-        ca.html index.html main.html nscp_ext_form.html stnd_ext_form.html
-- Edit the html files, substituting the name of your own server for the
-  server named in those files.
-- In some web page (e.g. your server's home page), provide an html link to
-  $DOCROOT/certomatic/index.html. This is where users start to get their
-  own certs from certomatic.
-- give these files and directories appropriate permissions.
-
-- Create directories $CGIBIN/certomatic and $CGIBIN/certomatic/bin
-  make sure that $CGIBIN/certomatic is writable by "nobody"
-
-- Create a new set of NSS db files there with the following command:
-
-        certutil -N -d $CGIBIN/certomatic
-
-- when certutil prompts you for the password, enter the word foo
-  because that is compiled into the certcgi program.
-
-- Create the new Root CA cert with this command
-
-        certutil -S -x -d $CGIBIN/certomatic -n "Cert-O-Matic II" \
-        -s "CN=Cert-O-Matic II, O=Cert-O-Matic II" -t TCu,cu,cu -k rsa \
-        -g 1024 -m 10001 -v 60
-
-  (adjust the -g, -m and -v parameters to taste.  -s and -x must be as
-shown.)
-
-- dump out the new root CA cert in base64 encoding:
-
-        certutil -d $CGIBIN/certomatic -L -n "Cert-O-Matic II" -a > \
-          $CGIBIN/certomatic/root.cacert
-
-- In $CGIBIN/certomatic/bin add two shell scripts - one to download the
-  root CA cert on demand, and one to run the certcgi program.
-
-download.cgi, the script to install the root CA cert into a browser on
-demand, is this:
-
-#!/bin/sh
-echo "Content-type: application/x-x509-ca-cert"
-echo
-cat $CGIBIN/certomatic/root.cacert
-
-You'll have to put the real path into that cat command because CGIBIN
-won't be defined when this script is run by the server.
-
-certcgi.cgi, the script to run the certcgi program is similar to this:
-
-#!/bin/sh
-cd $CGIBIN/certomatic/bin
-LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PLATFORM/lib
-export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-$PLATFORM/bin/certcgi $* 2>&1
-
-Where $PLATFORM/lib is where the NSPR nad NSS DSOs are located, and
-$PLATFORM/bin is where certcgi is located.  PLATFORM is not defined when 
-the server runs this script, so you'll have to substitute the right value 
-in your script.  certcgi requires that the working directory be one level 
-below the NSS DBs, that is, the DBs are accessed in the directory "..".
-
-You'll want to provide an html link somewhere to the script that downloads
-the root.cacert file.  You'll probably want to put that next to the link
-that loads the index.html page.  On interzone, this is done with the 
-following html:
-
-<a href="/certomatic/index.html">Cert-O-Matic II Root CA server</a>
-<p>
-<a href="/cgi-bin/certomatic/bin/download.cgi">Download and trust Root CA
-certificate</a>
-
-The index.html file in this directory invokes the certcgi.cgi script with 
-the form post method, so if you change the name of the certcgi.cgi script, 
-you'll also have to change the index.html file in $DOCROOT/certomatic
-
-The 4 files used by the certcgi program (the 3 NSS DBs, and the serial
-number file) are not required to live in $CGIBIN/certomatic, but they are
-required to live in $CWD/.. when certcgi starts.
-
-Known bugs:
-
-1. Because multiple of these CAs exist simultaneously, it would be best if 
-they didn't all have to be called "Cert-O-Matic II", but that string is 
-presently hard coded into certcgi.c.
-
-2. the html files in this directory contain numerous extraneous <FORM> tags
-which appear to use the post method and have action URLS that are never
-actually used.  burp.cgi and echoform.cgi are never actually used.  This
-should be cleaned up.
-
-3. The html files use <layer> tags which are supported only in Netscape 
-Navigator and Netscape Communication 4.x browsers.  The html files do 
-not work as intended with Netscape 6.x, Mozilla or Microsoft IE browsers.
-The html files should be fixed to work with all those named browsers.
