NAME
       gencert - Generate a test NSS database for mod_nss

SYNOPSIS
       gencert <destdir>

DESCRIPTION
       A  tool	used  to  generate a self-signed CA as well as server and user
       certificates for mod_nss testing.

       This is used to generate a default NSS database for the mod_nss	Apache
       module. It does not test to see if an existing database already exists,
       so use with care.

       gencert will generate a new NSS database	 and  set  an  empty  database
       password.

       It  generates  a self-signed CA with the subject "CN=Certificate Shack,
       O=example.com, C=US"

       It also generates a certificate suitable for servers with  the  subject
       "CN=<FQDN>,  O=example.com, C=US", and a user certificate with the sub‐
       ject "E=alpha@<FQDN>, CN=Frank  Alpha,  UID=alpha,  OU=People,  O=exam‐
       ple.com, C=US".

       The nicknames it uses are:

	      CA:		    cacert
	      Server certificate:   Server-Cert
	      User cert:	    alpha

OPTIONS
       <destdir>
	      Specifies the destination directory where the NSS databases will
	      be created.
