Hi Mike,

You mention that 2) The PKCS7 chain for step 2 is base 64 encoded, but NOT armored.

What do you mean by "Not armored"?

Thanks, Erwin

Armored would be -----BEGIN PKCS7----- or -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE CHAIN----- <base64 stuff> -----END PKCS7----- or -----END CERTIFICATE CHAIN----- Unarmored is just the base64 without the beginning and ending sentinels. Mike
