CAcert Code Development list.

[Markus Warg <cacert AT quarkus.de>]

Hi,

well, ok...
1st from where do I get the source of the signing server?

2nd once I have the code I can start to play. VM offers integration for
several pieces of hardware (but no physical serial ports currently...
doh). Ok, but you can map named pipes into virtual machines and then
make two virtual machines use the same named pipe. Which effectively
SHOULD behave as two machines connected with an serial cable or modem.

Have to try it out (once I have an signing server up&running).

regards,

Markus
