7

SYNOPSIS

9       remotectl {COMMAND} [OPTIONS...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The remotectl program will configure remote access to the system.
13       Currently it manages cockpit's SSL certificate.
14

COMMANDS

16       certificate
17           Manage Cockpit's SSL certificate. If used without options will
18           check if cockpit has a valid certificate without making any
19           changes.
20
21           --ensure Ensure that a certificate exists and can be loaded.
22           Certificate will be created if it does not already exist.
23
24           --user username The unix user that should own the certificate. Only
25           takes effect if used with --ensure.
26
27           --group groupname The unix group that should read the certificate.
28           Only takes effect if used with --ensure.
29
30           If any additional arguments are given, they are treated as files
31           that should be combined to create a certificate file. If the
32           combined files validate, they will be saved in the appropriate
33           location using the name of the first file given with the extension
34           changed to .cert. For example:
35
36           remotectl certificate server.pem chain.pem key.pem
37
38           will result in server.cert. If server.cert already exists it will
39           be overwritten.
