#  This script:
#  1. Generates a private host key and certificate request/
#  2. Decodes the private host key
#  3. Installs the private host key with appropriate permissions
#     in the  appropriate directory (sorry to be vague about this, but
#     the installation directory is determined by external configuration
#     info).
# 4. Constructs an email to the loncapa cluster administrator
#    consisting of a generic heading and the certificate request as a MIME
#    attachment.
# 5. Sends the email and
# 6. Cleans up after itself by removing any temp files generated.

=head1 NAME
 
    CrGenerate - Generate a loncapa certificate request.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Usage: B<CrGenerate>

This should probably be run automatically at system
installation time.  Root must run this as write access is 
required to /home/httpd.

This is a command line script that:

   - Generates a hostkey and certificate request.
   - Installs the protected/decoded host key where
     secure lond/lonc can find it.
   - Emails the certificate request to the loncapa certificate
     manager.

In due course if all is legitimate, the loncapa certificate
manager will email a certificate installation script to 
the local loncapa system administrator.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Using the default openssl configuration file, a certificate
request and local hostkey are created in the current working
directory.  The local host key is decoded and installed in the 
loncapa certificate directory.  This allows the secure versions 
of lonc and lond to locate them when attempting to form 
external connections.  The key file is given mode
0400 to secure it from prying eyes.

The certificate request in PEM form is attached to an email that
contains the textual equivalent of the certificate request 
and sent to the loncapa certificate manager.  All temporary
files (certificate request, keys etc.) are removed from the
current working directory.

It is recommended that the directory this script is run in have 
permission mask 0700 to ensure that there are no timing holes
during which the decoded host key file can be stolen.

During certificate generation, the user will receive several 
prompts.  For the default LonCAPA  openssl configuration, 
these prompts, and documentation and sample responses
in angle brackets (<>)  are shown below:

    Country Name (2 letter code) [GB]: <your country e.g. US>
    State or Province Name (full name) [Berkshire]: <State, province prefecture etc. e.g. Michigan>
    Locality Name (eg, city) [Newbury]: <City township or  municipality e.g. East Lansing>
    Organization Name (eg, company) [My Company Ltd]: <corporate entity e.g. Michigan State University>
    Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []: <unit within Organization e.g. LITE lab>
    Common Name (eg, your name or your server's host name) [] <server's hostname e.g. myhost.university.edu>
    Email Address []: <Address to which the granted certificate should be sent e.g. me@university.edu>
    
    Please enter the following 'extra' attributes
    to be sent with your certificate request
    A challenge password []: <leave this blank!!!!!>
    An optional company name []: <Put whatever you want or leave blank>


=head1  DEPENDENCIES

 - MIME::Entity           Used to create the email message.
 - LONCAPA::Configuration Used to parse the loncapa configuration files.
 - File::Copy             Used to install the key file.
 - /usr/lib/sendmail      Properly configured sendmail, used to send the
                          certificate request email to the loncapa
                          certificate administrator.
 - /etc/httpd/conf/*      Loncapa configuration files read to locate
                          the certificate directory etc.

=head1 FILES

  The following temporary files are created in the cwd

  hostkey.pem         - PEM formatted version of the encrypted host key.
  hostkey.dec         - PEM formatted decrypted version of the host key.
  request.pem         - PEM formatted certificate request.
  request.txt         - Textual rendering of the certificate request.

  The following permanent file is created:

  $CertDir/$Keyfile   - The installed decoded host key file. $CertDir
                        is defined by the Perl variable lonCertificateDirectory
                        in /etc/loncapa_apache.conf while $Keyfile is 
                        defined by the perl variable lonnetPrivateKey in the
                        same configuration file.
