This chapter describes a number of administrative and development utilities that are provided with CDSA. Note that some of these programs are typically called only from the CDSA initialization command file unless new add-in modules are being provided.
The CDSA utility programs comprise the following:
CDSA$CERTGEN.EXE - Generates digital certificates.
CDSA$ISSUER.EXE - Generates the issuer key functions.
CDSA$MDS_INSTALL.EXE - Creates the MDS database.
CDSA$MOD_INSTALL.EXE - Adds entries to the MDS database.
CDSA$OUTPUT_ERROR.EXE - Translates numeric CDSA error codes into text.
CDSA$SIGN.EXE - Creates manifests.
CDSA$VALIDATE.EXE - Validates Secure Delivery manifests.
CDSA$REVOKE.EXE - Packages certificates to be revoked for shipment back to the Certificate Authority (HP OpenVMS).
CDSA$X5092XML.EXE - Extracts the subject name from an X509 certificate.
