      Hey guys,

      I am searching for a possibility to automatically generate a large number of certificates within the Cert. Manager. Direct generation on the CLI through OpenSSL is unfavorable since the certificates need to be included in the configuration backup of pfSense. Please also note that for usability reasons (frequent password changes) I do not want to provide a password within the script.

      Does anybody have an idea how to handle this?

      Thanks in advance for any support provided!

            This is a 2 year old thread, with no details when first asked.

            I would suggest you start your own thread with details of "exactly" what your doing... Large number of certs means what 10, 100, 20,000? For example of a bad way to ask a question.
