-=head1 DSA CERTIFICATES
-
-Although the B<CA.pl> creates RSA CAs and requests it is still possible to
-use it with DSA certificates and requests using the L<req(1)|req(1)> command
-directly. The following example shows the steps that would typically be taken.
-
-Create some DSA parameters:
-
- openssl dsaparam -out dsap.pem 1024
-
-Create a DSA CA certificate and private key:
-
- openssl req -x509 -newkey dsa:dsap.pem -keyout cacert.pem -out cacert.pem
-
-Create the CA directories and files:
-
- CA.pl -newca
-
-enter cacert.pem when prompted for the CA file name.
-
-Create a DSA certificate request and privat key (a different set of parameters
-can optionally be created first):
-
- openssl req -out newreq.pem -newkey dsa:dsap.pem
-
-Sign the request:
-
- CA.pl -signreq
-

Most of the filenames mentioned can be modified by editing the B<CA.pl> script.
