[Pki-users] Certificate System Want to change hostname/IP address after installation

[lambam80 at hotmail.com]

Hello everybody:
 
Firstly, is this the primary Email-list for Dogtag/Red Hat Certificate System ?
 
Naturally, I've looked through all the archives, found here, for an answer:
     https://www.redhat.com/archives/pki-users/
 
We're using the DOGTAG CMS system found here:
     http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/PKI_Main_Page
 
We'd like to create a 'portable' CMS on a laptop running, say, Fedora release 8 (Werewolf).We'll then use this machine at different client sites where the machine's DNS name and IP address will change to issue certificates.
 
Is this possible ?
 
Firstly, I know that the console has the directory server's DNS name within the schema itself.My work-around is to leave an alias in /etc/hosts with the old hostname.
 
I expect the following URLs to cause an 'exception' in the Browser because hostname in DN does NOT equal hostname for the machine:
https://dogtag.org:9443/ca/agent/ca/https://dogtag.org:10443/kra/agent/kra/https://dogtag.org:12889/
I reckon this can be over-ridden by simply accepting the 'exception' when presented 
with the warning dialogue-box in Mozilla.
 
Q1. Any other considerations or obstacles ?
 
Cdlt,
