bbstored-certs 1 bbstored-certs Manage certificates for the Box Backup system bbstored-certs <certs-dir> <command> [<arguments>] Description bbstored-certs creates and signs certificates for use in Box Backup. It allows the user to create and sign the server keys, as well as signing client keys. All commands must be followed by the certs-dir, which is the directory in which the certificates are stored. Commands There are 3 commands: init: Create the certs-dir, and generate the server keys for bbstored. certs-dir cannot exist before running the command. sign-server <servercsrfile>: Sign the server certificate. The servercsrfile is the file generated by the init command. sign <clientcsrfile>: Sign a client certificate. The clientcsrfile is generated during client setup. See bbackupd-config(1). Send the signed certificate back to the client, and install according to the instructions given by bbackupd-config. Author Ben Summers and contributors.
