okay bestie, welcome to the Mono(crlupdate) manual page 💅 this is the glow-up edition, same facts, way more fun.

🌸 NAME 🌸

crlupdate — Mono Certficate Revocation List Downloader and Updater 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

crlupdate [-m] [-v] [-f]

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically this tool lets you download brand new Certficate Revocation Lists (CRLs), or update the ones you already have, and those CRLs are the ones tied to the certificates chillin' in your user store (that's the default, bestie) or your machine store. 🗂️

the CRLs that live in those stores are what get used to figure out whether an unexpired, trusted X.509 certificate is actually valid or not. it's giving trust issues but make it cryptography ✨

and real talk — to make sure your CRLs are always fresh (never stale, never crusty), consider automating the updates with the at command or similar. set it and forget it energy 🧚

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -m — update the CRL associated with the certificates in the machine store. by default tho, the tool works on the user store. 🖥️
• -v — verbose mode, aka yapping mode 🗣️. it displays extra information while it's downloading and updating the CRL.
• -f — force the download of all CRL, even the ones that aren't normally due for an update yet (i.e. nextUpdate is still in the future). no waiting, we're impatient 💀

---

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

mono crlupdate.exe

mono crlupdate.exe

downloads (if it's missing) or updates (if it exists and is past its due date) all the CRL associated with the certificates present in the user store. 🌸

---

mono crlupdate.exe -f -m

mono crlupdate.exe -f -m

forces the download of every CRL associated with the certificates present in the machine store. 🫶

⚠️ heads up bestie: the user running this needs read/write access to the machine store, otherwise the update will not occur. no cap.
