I've been researching how to set up a private certificate authority for an intranet, and one of the tools I read about is tinyca. The official web site according to Google and Wikipedia is http://www.sm-zone.net/. This site appears to be done, and it's not just me (http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/www.sm-zone.net). Has the site moved recently? Or is something else going on with the project?

Are there other simple tools for creating a private CA that people recommend instead?

Thanks.

Try xca - can generate proper X.509 v3 certificates, has templates for CA, server and client software, can generate CRL - pretty nice and solid software.
