NAME
     local-submit

SYNOPSIS
     local-submit [-d state-directory] [-v] [csrfile]

DESCRIPTION
     local-submit  is  the  helper  which certmonger uses to implement its local
     signer.  It is not normally run interactively, but  it  can  be  for  trou-
     bleshooting  purposes.  The signing request which is to be submitted should
     either be in a file whose name is given as an argument,  or  fed  into  lo-
     cal-submit via stdin.

     The local signer is currently hard-coded to generate and use a 2048-bit RSA
     key  and  a  name and initial serial number based on a UUID, replacing that
     key and certificate at roughly the midpoint of their useful lifetime.

     certmonger supports retrieving the list of current and previously-used  lo-
     cal  CA  certificates.   See getcert-request(1) and getcert-resubmit(1) for
     information about specifying where those certificates should be stored.

OPTIONS
     -d DIR, --ca-data-directory=DIR
	    Identifies the directory which contains the local  signer's  private
	    key, certificates, and other data used by the local signer.

     -v, --verbose
	    Increases the verbosity of the tool's diagnostic logging.

EXIT STATUS
     0	    if the certificate was issued. The new certificate will be printed.

     3	    if	the  helper  needs  to be called again.  An error message may be
	    printed.

     4	    if critical configuration information is missing.  An error  message
	    may be printed.

FILES
     creds  is	currently a PKCS#12 bundle containing the local signer's current
	    signing key and current and previously-used signer certificates.  It
	    should not be modified except by the local signer.	 A  new  key  is
	    currently generated when ever a new signer certificate is needed.

     serial
	    currently contains the serial number which will be used for the next
	    issued  certificate.   It should not be modified except by the local
	    signer.
