Hi guys,
We have set up a Certificate Authority,
We have now created a certificate request.
How do we turn this certificate request into an actual certificate at the authority?
-
Very much depends on the software you use to maintain the Certificate Authority. If you use OpenSSL there are helper scripts called CA.pl or CA.sh. I am also a huge fan of "easy-rsa" (google for it).
Hailwood : We use Windows server 2008 to maintain the authority. Does that help at all?From Signum -
If you are using OpenSSL, see http://sial.org/howto/openssl/ca/ You'll probably want to download and inspect the Makefile.
OpenSSL.org don't have a CA tutorial that I can find.
If IIS7 includes some CA certificate-signing options, you should probably ignore this answer. Although certificates produced and certified using OpenSSL should work just as well.
