!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is the certificate management tool for [Java].
Normally you would on perform this on [Server] or a [Client] that is required to present a [Certificate]
!! Creating a [CSR] [Example]
Though these [examples] show using the [Windows Client] [Operating System] the only difference is in the path names.
You need to specify your desired values for:
* Path values for all commands and locations.
* servername - The [Certificate Alias] of the [certificate] you are going to use.
* hostname.jks - The [Keystore] you are going to use.
* hostname.csr - The file name of the [CSR] you generate.
* mydomain.crt - The [Trust Anchor] ([Root Certificate]) Name
* mydomain - The [Trust Anchor] [Certificate Alias] for the [Trust Anchor]
* dname - replace the "CN=hostname,OU=IT, O=cisus.com LLP, L=Butler, ST=Ohio, C=US" with desired values
! Generate the [KeyStore|Trust Anchor Store]
If you do not already have a [Java KeyStore], you will need to create one:
{{{
%HOMEDRIVE%
cd %HOMEPATH%
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20\bin\keytool" -genkey -alias servername -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -keystore hostname.jks -dname "CN=hostname,OU=IT, O=cisus.com LLP, L=Butler, ST=Ohio, C=US"
}}}
! Generate the [CSR]
{{{
%HOMEDRIVE%
cd %HOMEPATH%
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20\bin\keytool" -certreq -alias servername -file hostname.csr -keystore hostname.jks
}}}
Your keystore file is %HOMEPATH%\hostname.jks.
Your [CSR] file is %HOMEPATH%\hostname.csr.
! Install the [TRUSTED CA|Trust Anchor]
{{{
%HOMEDRIVE%
cd %HOMEPATH%
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20\bin\keytool" -import -trustcacerts -alias mydomain -file mydomain.crt -keystore hostname.jks
}}}
! [Intermediate Certificates]
If there are [Intermediate Certificates], they also need to be installed into the:
{{{
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20\bin\keytool" -import -alias intermed -keystore hostname.jks -trustcacerts -file <name of the intermediate certificate>
}}}
! Import your hostname certificate
The CA and all Intermediate CAs must be installed before you import your Certificate.
{{{
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_20\bin\keytool" -import -alias servername -file servername -keystore hostname.jks
}}}
