+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.
+This sub-command of
+.BR pki (1)
+gets CA and RA certificates via http from a SCEP server using the \fIGetCACert\fR
+command of the Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (RFC 8894).
+.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.
+.TP
+.B "\-h, \-\-help"
+Print usage information with a summary of the available options.
+.TP
+.BI "\-v, \-\-debug " level
+Set debug level, default: 1.
+.TP
+.BI "\-+, \-\-options " file
+Read command line options from \fIfile\fR.
+.TP
+.BI "\-u, \-\-url " url
+URL of the SCEP server.
+.TP
+.BI "\-c, \-\-caout " file
+If present, path where the fetched root CA certificate file is stored to.
+If several CA certificates are downloaded, then the value of
+.B \-\-caout
+is used as a template to derive unique filenames (*-1, *-2, etc.) for the
+intermediate or sub CA certificates.
+If a file suffix is missing, then depending on the value of
+.B \-\-outform
+either .\fIder\fR (the default) or .\fIpem\fR is automatically appended.
+.TP
+.BI "\-r, \-\-raout " file
+If present, path where the fetched RA certificate file is stored to.
+If multiple RA certificates are available, then the value of
+.B \-\-raout
+is used as a template to derive unique filenames (*-2, etc.). If the
+.B \-\-raout
+option is missing, then the value of
+.B \-\-caout
+is used as a template to derive unique filenames (*-ra, *-ra-2, etc.) for the RA
+certificates. If a file suffix is missing, then depending on the value of
+.B \-\-outform
+either .\fIder\fR (the default) or .\fIpem\fR is automatically appended.
+.TP
+.BI "\-f, \-\-outform " encoding
+Encoding of the created certificate file. Either \fIder\fR (ASN.1 DER) or
+\fIpem\fR (Base64 PEM), defaults to \fIder\fR.
+.TP
+.B "\-F, \-\-force"
+Force overwrite of existing files.
+.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"

+A SCEP server sends a root CA and an intermediate CA certificate as well as an
+RA certificate:

+The trusthworthiness of the root CA certificate has to be established manually by
+verifying the SHA256 or SHA1 fingerprint of the DER-encoded certificate that is
+e.g. listed on the official PKI website or by some other means.
+.P
+The stored certificate files in DER format can be overwritten by PEM-encoded
+versions with:

+If the
+.B \-\-raout
+option is omitted and the

+template doesn't have a file suffix, then with
