Koji Certification Creation

= The Koji Certification Process=
As you may or may not know, the Koji build process
So after reading and tweaking sample openssl code and config here:
The script as usual asks the various questions about where you are from and the OU name and the province etc, etc, but is then followed by the question of what the commonName should be. This name and/or the OU name should always be different from any other certs already created or you will get a TXT_ error. My script makes pressing enter easier by allowing you to press enter knowing that the commonName will be (by default).. "kojiuser1". Now this may not seem like anything huge for the creation of one user but what if we were creating multiple users (which was the case with me).
#for user in arm{1..25}
>do
>./certscript $user
>done
In addition, a folder called "confs" holds all the conf files used to make the certs, this makes backtracking easier. For now only one line gets modified but it leaves progression for future endeavours. The only time you need to press a key other than enter is when it asks if you want to sign the cert. Of course 95% of the script remains the same as before but this modification makes life one step easier and hence minimizes the length of the cert creation process.
