Setting up a CA and signing certificates with it

by Mario Guerra

I have done this, according to http://www.tc.umn.edu/~brams006/selfsign.html, part 1B (generating your own CA): a) create a CA authority (ca.key and ca.crt) b) make a certificate request (server.csr) c) sign the certificate request (server.crt and server.key) with the new CA authority d) change the server key so it does not ask for a passphrase. Afterwards, the server.crt and server.key files are included in /usr/share/fred-client/ssl directory, and the fred-client configuration file is modified like this: ssl_cert = %(dir)s/server.crt ssl_key = %(dir)s/server.key Now, if I try to run fred-client this is the result: ERROR: socket.sslerror: [Errno 1] _ssl.c:480: error:14094418:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:tlsv1 alert unknown ca (200.107.82.18:700) Certificate not signed by verified certificate authority What should I do for fred-client to identify these certificates as valid?. Thanks in advance. Note: the new fred-client is perfectly compatible with FRED 2.2. -- Mario Guerra <mguerra(a)nic.cr>

Same. So, does your registry system have facilities for generating invoices such as these for pre-payments? Does it produce statements form registrars?

RE: payments - invoices and statements on FRED registry system

by Dr P Nyirenda

Hello, I would like to find out how your registry responds to a request like the one here below for invoices and statements on registrar payments to a registry that uses the FRED registry system. On our registry for the Malawi .mw ccTLD, registrar payments are credited to the registrar zone by zone according to what the registrar has paid for. Once the registrar has consumed the credit, then they need to make a new payment in advance which is then credited to the zones that they need. We do not need to issue them an invoice in advance, they make the payments based on what transactions they need to do on each zone. When we receive a request for their data payments, we have used Invoice on Daphne to generate the data and we have sent this to the registrar. However, as you can see here below, this registrar seems to be asking for more. I would therefore like to request information on how your registry using FRED handles requests for data, invoices and statements like these. Regards, Paulos ====================== Dr Paulos B Nyirenda NIC.MW & .mw ccTLD http://www.registrar.mw ------- Forwarded message follows ------- From: Jamil Kamaly <Jamil.Kamaly(a)NetNames.com> To: "paulos(a)sdnp.org.mw" <paulos(a)sdnp.org.mw> Copies to: Michal Czyz <Michal.Czyz(a)NetNames.com>, domains mw <domains(a)registrar.mw>, PB Nyirenda <pb.nyirenda(a)gmail.com> Subject: RE: Malawi payments. Date sent: Wed, 14 Jun 2017 11:56:39 +0000 Hi Dr Paulos, I think you might have misunderstood, I wasn’t complaining. The details you provided me in April was excel spreadsheet with payment details and the zones that were topped. We need proper invoices and statements and therefore I was following up on our last conversation where you was saying that you are developing a system to make this possible. I was just checking if this is now possible and would we be getting proper statements and invoices. Thank you.
