Netscape Certificate Management System (CMS) provides a customizable
publishing framework for the Certificate Manager and the Registration Manager,
enabling them to publish certificates, certificate revocation lists (CRLs), and other
certificate-related objects to any of the supported repositories—an
LDAP-compliant directory, a flat file, and an online validation authority—using
the appropriate protocol. This chapter explains how to configure the Certificate
Manager or Registration Manger to publish certificates and CRLs to a file, to a
directory, and to the Online Certificate Status Manager.
