Purpose

Generate a key, self-signed certificate, and certificate request.

Information

You'll notice there is a csrgen and csrgen35. This corresponds to their respective Python versions.

  • csrgen uses Python 2.7
  • csrgen34 uses Python 3.5

Usage

csrgen [fqdn]

python csrgen test.test.com

When more than one hostname is provided, a SAN (Subject Alternate Name) certificate and request are generated. This can be acheived by adding a -s.

csrgen -s

python csrgen test.test.com -s mushu.test.com pushu.test.com

When you do not want to be prompted for locality, you can use a config file. This can be acheived by adding -c. (SAN request still work)

Usage: csrgen -c your_config -s

python csrgen test.test.com -c csrgen.conf -s mushu.test.com pushu.test.com
