MINI-BUI...RTIFICATE(8)

👑 mini-buildd-self-signed-certificate — the manual, but make it make sense 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to MINI-BUI...RTIFICATE(8), filed under System Administration Utilities in section 8 of the manual (yes, the admin-y one, we're being serious here, kinda). This is your girl's guide to mini-buildd-self-signed-certificate, and I promise it's not as scary as the truncated title makes it look 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

mini-buildd-self-signed-certificate — the lil helper bestie that manages a self-signed key pair so mini-buildd can be encrypted 🔐💖

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

mini-buildd-self-signed-certificate status|create|remove [<cn> [<name>]]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically? This is a helper to manage a self-signed key pair to encrypt mini-buildd. That's the whole vibe. She's not complicated, she's just doing her one job and doing it well ✨

Here's the tea on the arguments:

• <cn> — defaults to the current fully qualified host name. Like, she'll just figure out who she is, no biggie 🌈
• <name> — defaults to 'mini-buildd'. Iconic default, no notes.

---

🎀 the key/cert files we manage 🎀

these are the files she's responsible for, periodt:

• /etc/ssl/mini-buildd/private/mini-buildd.key
• /etc/ssl/mini-buildd/certs/mini-buildd.crt

ngl bestie, those are the exact paths — don't go renaming them or moving them around, she will not find them and it will be a whole thing 😭

and that's the entire page, you ate that 💅

cute lil sign-off because we're classy like that: this page lives in the mini-buildd self-signed certificate section, it's dated February 2026, and the source/version line was giving mini-buildd-self-signed-certi... — yeah the terminal cut it off, she's mysterious like that 🙈💜 bye bestie, go encrypt something 🦋
