Easy TLS Certificate creation with XCA - Camera FTPS Server Setup Supplement

This video is a supplement to EOS R5 tip 56 (   • FTP/S Setup and Settings - EOS R5/R6 ...  ) looking at the computer side of setting up an FTPS server for the camera to upload images to. In this video we'll look at the XCA certificate creation and management package that I use to create certificates for securing HTTPS and FTPS servers.

IMPORTANT: In this video I'm demonstrating a minimum viable product to get an EOS R5 to securely communicate with the server. As such I've taken some shortcuts such as not filling in information that you would otherwise need or want to fill in on your certificates.
