To generate the private-key file:
1.
Go to this directory:
<server_root>/cert-<instance_id>/web-apps/ee
2.
Locate the file named
ManObjSignEnroll.html
.
3.
Open it in an editor.
4.
Search for this line:
Enroll.GenKeyFlags = 1
' key exportable
5.
Type the following line below it:
Enroll.PVKFilename = "<pvk_file_path>"
Your changes should look like this:
...
Enroll.GenKeyFlags = 1
' key exportable
Enroll.PVKFilename = "<pvk_file_path>"
szCertReq = Enroll.createPKCS10(szName, "1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2")
...
6.
Replace
<pvk_file_path>
with the absolute path, including the filename, to
the directory in which you want the private key file created; for example,
"C:\myKey.PVK"
. Be sure to use the
.PVK
extension and to enclose the path in
double quotes.
7.
Optionally, you may further edit the form to include a text field for entering
the file path.
8.
Save your changes.
9.
Now use the form to issue an object-signing certificate.
If your users need to generate Software Publishing File (SPC) files for their
object-signing certificates, you should ask them to use the Microsoft tool named
cert2spc
. The SPC file enables them to execute commands such as this:
signcode -spc myCert.spc -v myKey.pvk file.exe
Here’s how a user can create a SPC file for an object-signing certificate:
1.
Open a web browser window.
2.
Go to the End Entity Services interface.
3.
Locate the object-signing certificate for which you want to create the SPC file.
