5.2.1. Configuration

Before you can install and configure an RA, you need to install and configure a CA that is capable of
issuing certificates. Refer to the following sections for further information:
Section 2.5, "Installing the Certificate System "
•
Section 2.6, "Configuring the Default Subsystem Instances"
•
You can install the RA from the Red Hat Network (RHN), or by using the rpm command. For example:
# rpm -ivh rhpki-ra-7.3.0-27.el4
Procedure 5.1. Configuring an RA
The following procedure describes the steps for configuring an RA after a successful installation. The
