Project Dogtag
Project Dogtag is an opensource version of Red Hat Certificate Server. It was released to public in late March, 2008, installs on Fedora8
From installation perspective a very straightforward install.
1. Installed Fedora8, default options
2. Followed instructions on http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/PKI_Main_Page
3. I did not choose to compile, rather opted for compiled version
4. Installed the pre-requisites as the instructions on wiki said
5. Then proceeded with the instructions
6. Up and running in about 2 hours.
I would say try it out, and start using it.

PKI
Public-Key infrastructure (PKI) is the integration of software, hardware, encryption technologies and services for managing public keys. PKI provides for the four basic requirements of a secure system:
- Confidentiality to keep information private.
- Integrity to prove that information has not been changed.
- Authentication to prove the identity of the sender.
- Non-repudiation, which ensures that the information originator cannot deny ownership.
How these requirements are acheived?

Configure Solaris server as a DHCP client
- To find out the interfaces on your system, type: ifconfig -a
- Lets assume your interface name is "pcn0"
- Run "ifconfig pcn0 plumb"
- Run "ifconfig pcn0 dhcp start" to bring the interface up and get a DHCP address (assuming you have a DHCP server for the subnet your host is on)
- Create empty files named /etc/hostname.pcn0 and /etc/dhcp.pcn0
- Reboot: shutdown -i6 -g0 -y
