Creating and setting up Docker for TLS

create-docker-tls.sh

#!/bin/bash
# This script will help you setup Docker for TLS authentication.
# Run it passing in the arguement for the FQDN of your docker server
#
# For example:
#    ./create-docker-tls.sh myhost.docker.com
# 
# The script will also create a profile.d (if it exists) entry 
# which configures your docker client to use TLS
#
# We will also overwrite /etc/sysconfig/docker (again, if it exists) to configure the daemon.  
# A backup will be created at /etc/sysconfig/docker.unixTimestamp
#
# MIT License applies to this script.  I don't accept any responsibility for 
# damage you may cause using it.
