I am now looking into using Perl to sign certs much like the CA.pl, but I need to address the issue of simultaneous access to certain files.
I can fix the newreq.pem problem by adding a command line arg that is passed to the script, but what about index.txt. Should I do a filelock on index.txt somehow? Is there a way to make ca ignore it and use a database instead? What about the serials file? This seems like something someone else might have already solved, but my searches haven't turned anything up yet. So, what is a clean and secure way to handle simultaneous ca requests?
