#2813 Warnings for subsystem-specific parameters defined in [DEFAULT] section.
Closed: migrated 3 years ago by dmoluguw. Opened 6 years ago by edewata.

Currently the pkispawn man page provides examples with some parameters defined in [DEFAULT] section, e.g:

[DEFAULT]
pki_admin_password=Secret123
pki_client_pkcs12_password=Secret123
pki_ds_password=Secret123

These parameters should have been defined in [<subsystem>] section since they are subsystem-specific, i.e.:

[CA]
pki_admin_password=Secret123
pki_client_pkcs12_password=Secret123
pki_ds_password=Secret123

The man page should be updated and pkispawn should generate warnings if these parameters are defined in [DEFAULT] section in the user configuration file.

Note that the location of the parameters in the default.cfg is irrelevant. They could be moved into [<subsystem>] as well, or they can stay in [DEFAULT] for other reasons (e.g. backward compatibility).
