[Nfd-dev] Using ndnsec to sign a certificate

[Anthony Dowling]

Hello all,

I am working on using ndnsec to generate signed certificates to
authenticate data, but for some reason I am having a lot of issues with it.
I have a machine that requests a certificate, then another one acting as a
"Certification Authority". For clarification, yes, I did transfer the file
to the "CA" before using cert-gen. What is the issue here?
