openvas-mkcert - Creates a scanner certificate
SYNOPSIS
openvas-mkcert [ -q ]
DESCRIPTION
The OpenVAS Security Scanner protects the communication between the
client and the scanner by using SSL. SSL requires the scanner to
present a certificate to the client, and the client can optionally
present a certificate to the scanner.
This script openvas-mkcert creates a certificate authority (if none
exists already) and generates the scanner certificate.
OPTIONS-q quickly generates a new certificate, without asking any question
