#162 fix nickname nightmare
Closed: migrated 3 years ago by dmoluguw. Opened 12 years ago by vakwetu.

We store the nicknames of the system certs all over the place in CS.cfg. This makes it difficult to change a nickname and makes for overly complicated installation code. Its further complicated because some of the entries have token: attached and some do not.

For example, in the CA:

[root@alee-workpc alias]# grep nickname /etc/pki-ca22/CS.cfg
ca.audit_signing.nickname=auditSigningCert testca
ca.cert.audit_signing.nickname=auditSigningCert testca
ca.cert.ocsp_signing.nickname=ocspSigningCert testca
ca.cert.signing.nickname=signingCert testca
ca.cert.sslserver.nickname=sslServerCert testca
ca.cert.subsystem.nickname=subsystemCert testca
ca.ocsp_signing.cacertnickname=ocspSigningCert testca
ca.ocsp_signing.certnickname=ocspSigningCert testca
ca.ocsp_signing.nickname=ocspSigningCert testca
ca.signing.cacertnickname=signingCert testca
ca.signing.certnickname=signingCert testca
ca.signing.nickname=signingCert testca
ca.sslserver.nickname=sslServerCert testca
ca.subsystem.nickname=subsystemCert testca
cloning.audit_signing.nickname=auditSigningCert testca
cloning.ocsp_signing.nickname=ocspSigningCert testca
cloning.signing.nickname=signingCert testca
cloning.subsystem.nickname=subsystemCert testca
pkiremove.cert.subsystem.nickname=subsystemCert cert-pki-ca22
selftests._006=## ca.cert.<cert tag name>.nickname

This is sheer madness! We need a single nickname for each subsystem cert.
