191 nseq \- create or examine a netscape certificate sequence
193 \fBopenssl\fR \fBnseq\fR
194 [\fB\-in filename\fR]
195 [\fB\-out filename\fR]
198 The \fBnseq\fR command takes a file containing a Netscape certificate
199 sequence and prints out the certificates contained in it or takes a
200 file of certificates and converts it into a Netscape certificate
202 .SH "COMMAND OPTIONS"
203 .Ip "\fB\-in filename\fR" 4
204 This specifies the input filename to read or standard input if this
205 option is not specified.
206 .Ip "\fB\-out filename\fR" 4
207 specifies the output filename or standard output by default.
208 .Ip "\fB\-toseq\fR" 4
209 normally a Netscape certificate sequence will be input and the output
210 is the certificates contained in it. With the \fB\-toseq\fR option the
211 situation is reversed: a Netscape certificate sequence is created from
212 a file of certificates.
214 Output the certificates in a Netscape certificate sequence
217 \& openssl nseq -in nseq.pem -out certs.pem
219 Create a Netscape certificate sequence
222 \& openssl nseq -in certs.pem -toseq -out nseq.pem
225 The \fBPEM\fR encoded form uses the same headers and footers as a certificate:
228 \& -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
229 \& -----END CERTIFICATE-----
231 A Netscape certificate sequence is a Netscape specific form that can be sent
232 to browsers as an alternative to the standard PKCS#7 format when several
233 certificates are sent to the browser: for example during certificate enrollment.
234 It is used by Netscape certificate server for example.
236 This program needs a few more options: like allowing DER or PEM input and
237 output files and allowing multiple certificate files to be used.
