Kyle Evans f27f39db77 [1/3] Initial infrastructure for SSL root bundle in base This setup will add the trusted certificates from the Mozilla NSS bundle to base. This commit includes: - CAROOT option to opt out of installation of certs - mtree amendments for final destinations - infrastructure to fetch/update certs, along with instructions A follow-up commit will add a certctl(8) utility to give the user control over trust specifics. Another follow-up commit will actually commit the initial result of updatecerts. This work was done primarily by allanjude@, with minor contributions by myself.

# $FreeBSD$

This directory contains the scripts to update the TLS CA Root Certificates
that comprise the 'root trust store'.

The 'updatecerts' make target should be run periodically by secteam@
specifically when there is an important change to the list of trusted root
certificates included by Mozilla.

It will:
	1) Remove the old trusted certificates (cleancerts)
	2) Download the latest certdata.txt from Mozilla (fetchcerts)
	3) Split certdata.txt into the individual .pem files (updatecerts)

Then the results should manually be inspected (svn status)
	1) Any no-longer-trusted certificates should be moved to the
	blacklisted directory (svn mv)
	2) any newly added certificates will need to be added (svn add)


The following make targets exist:

cleancerts:
	Delete the old certificates, run as a dependency of updatecerts.

fetchcerts:
	Download the latest certdata.txt from the Mozilla NSS hg repo
	See the changelog here:
		https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nss/log/tip/lib/ckfw/builtins/certdata.txt

updatecerts:
	Runs a perl script (MAca-bundle.pl) on the downloaded certdata.txt
	to generate the individual certificate files (.pem) and store them
	in the trusted/ directory.
