NAME
       gencert - Generate a test NSS database for mod_nss

SYNOPSIS
       gencert DIRECTORY

DESCRIPTION
       A  tool	to generate self-signed CA as well as server and user certifi‐
       cates 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 subject
       "E=alpha@FQDN, CN=Frank	Alpha,	UID=alpha,  OU=People,	O=example.com,
       C=US".

       The nicknames it uses are:

       CA: cacert

       Server certificate: Server-Cert

       User cert: alpha
