NAME
	     openca-ocspd - OCSP Daemon

SYNOPSIS
     openca-ocspd  [-d]  [-p  n] [-b address] [-c file] [-md digest] [-k passwd]
     [-i passin] [-e engine] [-r chroot_dir] [-v]

DESCRIPTION
     The openca-ocspd is an RFC2560 compliant OCSPD responder. It can be used to
     verify  the  status  of  a  certificate  using  OCSP   clients   (such   as
     Mozilla/Netscape7).

OPTIONS
     -d  detach the main process from the calling process.

     -p nspecifies the port to bind to. Default is 2560.

     -b address
	 specifies  the IP address to bind to. Default behaviour is to listen to
	 every IP available (equal to '*' value).

     -c file
	 specifies the configuration file to be loaded. Default file  loaded  is
	 /usr/local/etc/ocspd.conf.

     -md digest
	 specifies  the  digest to be used when generating responses. Default is
	 sha1.

     -k passwd
	 specifies the password to be used when loading the private key.

     -i passin
	 the key password source. For more information about the format  of  arg
	 see the PASS PHRASE ARGUMENTS section in openssl(1).

     -engine id
	 specifying  an engine (by it's unique id string) will cause the respon-
	 der to attempt to obtain a functional reference to  the  specified  en-
	 gine,	thus  initialising  it if needed. The engine will then be set as
	 the default for all available algorithms.

     -r chroot_dir
	 Chroot the application into the specified directory.

     -v  this prints extra details about the operations being performed.

NOTES
	 Actually not extensive testing has been carried out, anyway this daemon
	 is reported to work with Mozilla/Netscape.

	 To reload the certificate's db simply send a SIGHUP to the main process
	 ( kill -s SIGHUP pid ).

EXAMPLE
	     openca-ocspd -c contrib/ocspd.conf
