I have done this, according to http://www.tc.umn.edu/~brams006/selfsign.html, part 1B (generating your own CA):
a) create a CA authority (ca.key and ca.crt)
b) make a certificate request (server.csr)
c) sign the certificate request (server.crt and server.key) with the new CA authority
d) change the server key so it does not ask for a passphrase.
Afterwards, the server.crt and server.key files are included in /usr/share/fred-client/ssl directory, and the fred-client configuration file is modified like this:
ssl_cert = %(dir)s/server.crt
ssl_key = %(dir)s/server.key
Now, if I try to run fred-client this is the result:
ERROR: socket.sslerror: [Errno 1] _ssl.c:480: error:14094418:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:tlsv1 alert unknown ca (200.107.82.18:700)
Certificate not signed by verified certificate authority
What should I do for fred-client to identify these certificates as valid?.
Thanks in advance.
Note: the new fred-client is perfectly compatible with FRED 2.2.

Hi
as some of you have already found out, we have released a new EPP
documentation a few weeks ago. It contains all EPP commands available
in FRED with examples and appropriate fred-client commands. This
documentation is available here:
https://fred.nic.cz/documentation/html/EPPReference/index.html
We would like to ask you to help us in deciding which part of FRED
needs better documentation. To make it easier for you, there is simple
survey with a list of topics that we may concentrate on in further
development of FRED documentation.

Please, try to fill it before the end of November so we could make a
plan for beginning of next year.
Regards,
Jaromir
