Red Hat CERTIFICATE SYSTEM 8 - AGENTS GUIDE Agents Manual page 59

• Type. Lists certain types of certificates, such as all certificates for subordinate CAs. This search
works only for certificates containing the Netscape Certificate Type extension, which stores type
information. For each type, choose from the drop-down list to find certificates where that type is
On, Off, or Do Not Care.
4. To find a certificate with a specific subject name, use the Subject Name section. Select the check
box, then enter the subject name criteria. Enter values for the included search criteria and leave
the others blank.
The standard tags or components are as follows:
• Email address. Narrows the search by email address.
• Common name. Finds certificates associated with a specific person or server.
• UserID. Searches certificates by the user ID for the person to whom the certificate belongs.
• Organization unit. Narrows the search to a specific division, department, or unit within an
organization.
• Organization. Narrows the search by organization.
• Locality. Narrows the search by locality, such as the city.
• State. Narrows the search by state or province.
• Country. Narrows the search by country; use the two-letter country code, such as US.
NOTE
Certificate System certificate request forms support all UTF-8 characters for the
common name and organizational unit fields. The common name and organization
unit fields are included in the subject name of the certificate. This means that the
searches for subject names or those elements in the subject name support UTF-8
characters.
This support does not include supporting internationalized domain names, such as in
email addresses.
5. After entering the field values for the server to match, specify the type of search to perform:
• Exact searches for certificate subject names match the exact components specified and contain
none of the components left blank. Wildcards cannot be used in this type of search.
• Partial searches for certificate subject names match the specified components, but the returned
certificates may also contain values in components that were left blank. Wildcard patterns
can be used in this type of search by using a question mark (?) to match an arbitrary single
character and an asterisk (*) to match an arbitrary string of characters.
