Re: [Pki-users] Configure externally acquired private key and certificate

Hi Christina, Sorry for the confusion. Let me rephrase the steps below if it is supported: 1. Generate private key and CSR for intermediate CA using openssl 2. Submit the CSR to external CA (Ex: Symantec) for signing 3. Receive the signed certificate from CA 4. Setup DogTag with the private key (generated in step #1) and intermediate CA certificate (acquired in step #3) I’m hoping this approach allows me to perform step 1-3 once and then setup DogTag as many times I need using the existing private key and certificate on any host. Please let me know if you need further clarification.

In other words, If I generate the private key and CSR using openssl and submit CSR to CA for certificate. Once the CA issued the certificate, I would like to setup DogTag using the existing private key (created using openssl) and certificate. Hi, I'm sorry I read your questions a few times and I'm not certain what you wish to do. What would you like to use this certificate for? For example, is this an SSL server cert, or CA signing cert? etc. And you mean in another new Dogtag instance, or are you talking about replacing certain system cert of the CA you just set up?
