NAME

       xca - X Certificate and key management
       A  GUI  for  handling  X509  certificates,  RSA/DSA/EC  keys, PKCS#10 Requests and CRLs in
       Software and on Smartcards.

SYNOPSIS

       xca [-v] [-d] [-x]

DESCRIPTION

       This application is intended as CA, certificate- and Key store. It uses a single  file  to
       store  the  items.   Supported  are  Certificate  signing requests (PKCS#10), Certificates
       (X509v3), RSA, DSA and EC keys and Certificate revokation lists.  The signing of requests,
       and  the  creation  of  selfsigned  certificates  is supported. Both can use templates for
       simplicity.  The PKI structures can be imported  and  exported  in  several  formats  like
       PKCS#12, PEM, DER, PKCS#8, PKCS#7.
       XCA enables users to manage smartcards via the PKCS#11 interface

OPTIONS

       A  summary  of options are included below.  There are some deprecated legacy options: [-k]
       [-r] [-c] [-p] [-7] [-l] [-t] [-P]
       Before XCA 0.9.0, the type of the items had to be given. This was removed since. Just  put
       all  keys,  certs,  requests  and  the database unsorted on the commandline. For backwards
       compatibility those options are ignored when found.

       -v     Show version information and exit.

       -d     expect the following argument to be a new database to use.

       -x     Exit after processing all commandline options.  Usually after importing  the  items
              from commandline the application will startup as usual. With the -x option given it
              will exit after finishing the import dialog. This is  useful  if  xca  is  used  as
              default application for viewing certificates, keys or requests.
