Description:

The Symmetric Key Java Native Interface (JNI) package supplies various native
symmetric key operations to Java programs.

This package is a part of the PKI Core used by the Certificate System.


==================================
|| ABOUT "CERTIFICATE SYSTEM" ||
==================================

Certificate System (CS) is an enterprise software system designed
to manage enterprise Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) deployments.

PKI Core contains ALL top-level java-based Tomcat PKI components:

* pki-symkey
* pki-base
* pki-tools
* pki-selinux (f17 only)
* pki-server
* pki-ca
* pki-kra (fedora only)
* pki-ocsp (fedora only)
* pki-tks (fedora only)
* pki-javadoc

which comprise the following corresponding PKI subsystems:

* Certificate Authority (CA)
* Data Recovery Manager (DRM) (fedora only)
* Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) Manager (fedora only)
* Token Key Service (TKS) (fedora only)

For deployment purposes, PKI Core contains fundamental packages
required by BOTH native-based Apache AND java-based Tomcat
Certificate System instances consisting of the following components:

* pki-tools
* pki-selinux (f17 only)

Additionally, PKI Core contains the following fundamental packages
required ONLY by ALL java-based Tomcat Certificate System instances:

* pki-symkey
* pki-base
* pki-tools
* pki-server

PKI Core also includes the following components:

* pki-javadoc

Finally, if Certificate System is being deployed as an individual or
set of standalone rather than embedded server(s)/service(s), it is
strongly recommended (though not explicitly required) to include at
least one PKI Theme package:

* dogtag-pki-theme (Dogtag Certificate System deployments)
* dogtag-pki-server-theme
* redhat-pki-server-theme (Red Hat Certificate System deployments)
* redhat-pki-server-theme
* customized pki theme (Customized Certificate System deployments)
* <customized>-pki-server-theme

NOTE: As a convenience for standalone deployments, top-level meta
packages may be provided which bind a particular theme to
these certificate server packages.
