Hi Joe,

Does anyone know how can I revoke a certificate, even if I don't have
the certificate file anymore, (using openssl) can I just update the
index.txt line associated with this certificate, change the V to R and
add the revocation date? If this should work does anyone have already a
script that does that? Or can some one help with the exact format of
the index.txt file.

Yes, that's the way: Just change V to R and add a
revocation date. Then issue a new CRL. You might
inspect the CRL afterward with

openssl crl -in crlfile.pem -text

and you should see that the serial number of the revoked
certificate is listed in the CRL.

Cheers, Olaf
