Re: Install Sun Certificate on Remote PC

Roedy,

Thanks for your input, I sure do like the idea. I've read some on
your web site, as well as many of your replies to other people... you
sure know your stuff. I on the other hand, don't when it comes to
these certificates. It's just something I haven't had to deal much
with.

I've tried to do some additional reading up on the subject, but
it's not getting much clearer. I don't think we're currently
using any private certs, so replacing the cacerts or .keystore file
might be a very valid solution. Here is the issue I have: when I
manually add the cert to one of my test PCs (Ctrl Panel | Java |
Security Tab | Certificates | Import), all of the cacerts and .keystore
files do not change. It's as though the Sun cert is doing something
else and not using those files. So either am I missing something here,
or would replacing one of the files do any good, giving the fact they
don't change?

The certificate that I'm importing is a .CSR file. That certificate
is for one of our new web applications. We do purchase quite a few
certs from VeriSign, but I don't know if this is one of them. Would
possibly using one of them solve this issue because it would already be
trusted? Since I have to import these through the Sun Java interface,
I don't know if that puts a kink in this.

Sorry for not knowing much about all of this, but I'm working on it.

Thanks,
James
