Description

PHPki is an Open Source Web application for managing a multi-agency PKI for HIPAA compliance. With it, you may create and centrally manage X.509 certificates for use with S/MIME enabled e-mail clients, SSL servers, and VPN applications.

PHPki is now used to manage certificates with the new release of smeserver-openvpn-bridge.

You can see a demo installation here

Requirements

• SME Server 7.X

	Warning:
	This version of PHPki is a slightly modified version, so it can be used with certificates generated with previous release of smeserver-openvpn-bridge, plus some others minor modifications.

Installation

• install the rpms and start/restart needed services:

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-phpki
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
expand-template /etc/httpd/pki-conf/httpd.conf
sv t /service/httpd-e-smith
sv u /service/httpd-pki

• Configure your new PKI

Go in the server-manager, you'll find a new "Manage Certificates" menu (or you can use the URL https://server.domain.tld/phpki/ca) Here you have to enter the following informations:

• • Organisation
  • Department
  • Common Name of the Master CA
  • E-mail (technical contact)
  • City
  • State
  • Country Code
  • Password (to protect the private key of the Master CA)
  • Validity of the CA
  • Keys size
  • URL of your PKI (https://my.domain.tld/phpki)

Others settings should be OK for most installations.

Once you have submitted this form, you'll be able to start using PHPki. It's quite easy to use.

The administrative interface is available on the server-manager or directly https://my.domain.tld/phpki/ca

There's also a public interface, available only from the local networks, but without password at https://my.domain.tld/phpki. Here, users can download the Master CA certificate, the CRL, or search for certificates of other users (public part only of course).

	Warning:
	If you just installed the OpenVPN-Bridge contrib and are installing PHPki as suggested by the wiki page, then you are done here, and you don't have to migrate any certificates

Migrate Certificates from previous OpenVPN-Bridge contrib installations

If you have used OpenVPN-Bridge before and have already certificates, follow the instructions below. If you have a fresh and new install of OpenVPN-Bridge, skip the below instructions for you do not have 'old' certificates!

PHPki is now the certificate manager recommended to manage OpenVPN_Bridge certificates. This part will explain how-to import your certificates created with openvpn-bridge into PHPki

• First, you need to install the contribs as it's explain on this page (you can enter anything for the configuration of the CA, all your old parameters will be restored)

• Second, you need to copy this script on your server (for example as /root/migrate.sh) and execute it as root.

	Warning:
	Of course, take some time to read this script before runing it as root.
