## Creating an admin certificate for k3s

Create the admin's private key:
```
openssl genpkey -algorithm ed25519 -out <username>-key.pem
```

Create a CSR for the admin:
```
openssl req -new -key <username>-key.pem -out <username>.csr -subj "/CN=<username>"
```

Create a Kubernetes CSR object on the cluster:
```
k3s kubectl create -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: certificates.k8s.io/v1
kind: CertificateSigningRequest
metadata:
  name: <username>-csr
spec:
  request: $(cat <username>.csr | base64 | tr -d '\n')
  expirationSeconds: 307584000 # 10 years
  signerName: kubernetes.io/kube-apiserver-client
  usages:
    - digital signature
    - key encipherment
    - client auth
EOF
```

Approve and sign the admin's CSR:
```
k3s kubectl certificate approve <username>-csr
```

Extract the resulting signed certificate from the CSR object:
```
k3s kubectl get csr <username>-csr -o jsonpath='{.status.certificate}' | base64 --decode > <username>.crt
```
