nseq(1ssl)


NAME

   nseq - create or examine a netscape certificate sequence

SYNOPSIS

   openssl nseq [-in filename] [-out filename] [-toseq]

DESCRIPTION

   The nseq command takes a file containing a Netscape certificate
   sequence and prints out the certificates contained in it or takes a
   file of certificates and converts it into a Netscape certificate
   sequence.

COMMAND OPTIONS

   -in filename
       This specifies the input filename to read or standard input if this
       option is not specified.

   -out filename
       specifies the output filename or standard output by default.

   -toseq
       normally a Netscape certificate sequence will be input and the
       output is the certificates contained in it. With the -toseq option
       the situation is reversed: a Netscape certificate sequence is
       created from a file of certificates.

EXAMPLES

   Output the certificates in a Netscape certificate sequence

    openssl nseq -in nseq.pem -out certs.pem

   Create a Netscape certificate sequence

    openssl nseq -in certs.pem -toseq -out nseq.pem

NOTES

   The PEM encoded form uses the same headers and footers as a
   certificate:

    -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

    -----END CERTIFICATE-----
   A Netscape certificate sequence is a Netscape specific form that can be
   sent to browsers as an alternative to the standard PKCS#7 format when
   several certificates are sent to the browser: for example during
   certificate enrollment.  It is used by Netscape certificate server for
   example.

BUGS

   This program needs a few more options: like allowing DER or PEM input
   and output files and allowing multiple certificate files to be used.
