I suspect the uid is probably caadmin, which is the default, if you left it that way. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ha T.

I've managed to get ssh -X sorted out because when I typed pkiconsole https://ca02.mycompany.com:8433/ca I get a dialog box asking for User ID and Password. From our conf file, I put in the pki_admin_uid and pki_admin_password, the dialog box went away, but nothing else happened. I also tried using pki_client_pkcs12_password but with the same result. Looking at the log file /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat/localhost_access_log.2016-04-25.txt, I see "POST /ca/auths HTTP/1.0" 200 27 At this point, I'm not sure if it's because I put in the wrong authentication or if I'm still having problem with the pkiconsole. I've been trying to setup vncserver as you recommended but haven't had much luck. I stumbled on the pki commands and it looks like I can use them to install client certificate, are they equivalent to the pkiconsole?

Hello:
Your approach seems reasonable:
Perhaps you might want to start a vncserver on there and come in that way. There has been issues with using the console over ssh.

Hi all,
We have a Dog Tag system hosted on Fedora inside a VirtualBox, our admin certificate has unfortunately expired, so the web interface complains
the cert is invalid. I've managed to rewind the clock and authorized myself a PKI Administrator certificate following this thread:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/pki-users/2013-October/msg00008.html
I'm now trying to import the new certificate into the system. The thread mentioned doing it through the pkiconsole, but I have not been able to get it to work, when I typed:
pkiconsole https://ca02.mycompany.com:8433/ca
I don't get any error message, but I don't see any console either. I suspect this is because I'm ssh-ing into a virtualbox and the display is not set correctly.
My questions are: 1. Does the process I mentioned above make sense? I'm new to dogtag and still learning about it. 2. If I'm on the right track, is there a command line option for
----- Original Message ----- that pkiconsole?
Thank you for your help, Ha
