Re: [Keystone] PKI

 

This builds on X509.

I've written up a proof of concept.

Fully agreed. Academic and Research sites have extensive X.509 infrastructure that we would not wish to duplicate.

Are you only looking at user certificates or are host certificates in the scope too ?

Well, the PKI pieces are the same regardless of the CA and certificate issuing pieces. All we will need to do is to use a signing key to sign a document. So EJBCA or Dogtag will work equally as well. If people already have a CA infrastructure, they should be able to leverage that, too.

If you're open to levarging other OSS projects, http://www.ejbca.org/architecture.html us a great one to look at, assuming you need a PKI implementation available.

I believe it is at least worth a look.

Coming out of the Keystone meeting from today (http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/openstack-meeting/2012/openstack-meeting.2012-05-15-18.02.html), I thought it worth mentioning that adam young has been doing some tremendous lifting in terms of looking at adding in PKI support to Keystone. The writeup and details are on the OpenStack wiki at http://wiki.openstack.org/PKI

I rather suspect there's a lot of interest in this topic, so I wanted to make sure the broader community knew about the effort, what we were thinking, and were we are.

If you're interested in discussing, the keystone meeting is on Tuesday mornings at 18:00 UTC
