Semi-related, and sorry if I blew by some point made about this earlier...
but we, and probably alot of others, are looking at running our own CA for a
company Intranet. Netscape, Xcert, et. al. are promising servers that let
you cut your own certificates, but I was wondering if anyone has a utility
or package that uses pgp to generate and sign keys in conjunction with a
code snippet that packages the result in x.509? This could be very handy...a
poor mans CA app....

TIA
