Certificate Authority and server certitifcate .

Friends,
I wish to create a Self signed certificate (CA ) and a server certificate using java .
Can anybody please help me or guide me to a relevant document ?
Thnaks in advance .
regards,
Dhiraj Shetty

I wish to create a Self signed certificate (CA )This is a contradiction in terms. If you just want a self-signed certificate, you can generate it with the keytool. If you want one signed by a CA you still have to start by generating a certificate request with the keytool as described in the Javadoc/Guide to Features/Security/JSSE Reference Guide and then send the certificate request to a CA.
and a server certificateSee above. I don't know what 'and' means here. You only need one certificate.
using javaNot using Java as defined by the JDK. Maybe Bouncy Castle can do it in Java code.
Can anybody please help me or guide me to a relevant document ? See above.

  • Using an ASA 5505 as a Certificate Authority and Distribution Point?

    I had a question about the limitations of an ASA 5505 and using it as CA. The setup would be as follows:
    2 ASA 5520's in set up for high availability failover.
    1 ASA set up with a local CA server.
    If I had to set up VPN to connect to an interface on the ASA 5520's and wanted to require certificates as a secondary authentication could they use an ASA 5505 as a CA to retrieve and verify stored certificates? The issue I ran in to was not being able to set up a local CA server on the failover pair and was hoping to use an ASA 5505 with a local CA server to act as a distribution point. I have been researching various configurations similar to this but have not found definitive information if it is even possible.
    If someone could verify if this is even possible and / or point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Rick

    You can only create self signed certificates using the ASA, or import a identity certificate from a 3rd party CA.  The ASA unfortunately can only issue user certificates to users or PCs via downloading from a website, they cannot complete CSR requests.

  • Certificate authority and certificate.

    Hi everybody
    Please consider the following example:
    R1------------------------CA---------------------------R2
    We want R1 to get the certificate from Ca so R1 can use it to authenticate itself to R2. Similarly R2 wants to get its own certificate so it can authenticate itself to R1.
    Both routers are configured to trust CA.
    Before CA can issue certificates to R1 and R2 which they can use to authenticate each other, CA sends its own certificate which has its own (CA) public key, and CA signature.  The video lecture I was watching says CA creates this signature , encrypts its own private key and attaches it to the certificate.
    When R1 receives this certificate, R1 uses  CA's public key to decrypt it.
    In order for R1 to prove that certificate did come from CA not some impostor, It should know what was the signature before it was encrypted by CA using its private key and sending it  to R1 ,so when R1 receives it and decrypts it with CA's public key it will be to compare and  thus can be sure Certificate came from legit CA.
    The question is how does R1 know the signature prior to receiving certificate from CA?
    Thanks and have a great day.

    A certificate signature is created by applying a hash algorithm over the certificate contents , then encrypting the resulted hash. so for R1 to know and verify the signature, it computes the hash of the received certificate (by a hash algorithm mentioned in the cert) , decrypt the signature, then compares both computed hash and decrypted signature which must be equal.
    Hope this helps.

  • Certificate Authority is not being seen by windows server 2003 machines

    Good Afternoon,
    We recently installed a certificate authority using windows server 2008 r2. There was an old certificate authority that had went bad and the role could not be uninstalled on the bad server. The new certificate authority works with windows 2008 machines but
    does not work with server 2003 machines. Mainly trying to get the domain controller certificate. At first it was stating that the rpc was unavailable for the CA. I tried to delete the remnants under the sites and services role of the old server. The error
    now it states that it can not find a certificate authority. As stated above the newer machines (Server 2008)  can see the certificate authority and request certificates but older machines cant. Any assistance on what to do next will be greatly appreciated.
    Attached is the error I receive when trying to request a certificate through the CA mmc.
    dmg

    It is possible to change the hash algorithm a CA uses  to support XP and 2003 "out of the box" without the hotfix.
    But it would be better to have two CAs in parallel - one using a more modern algorithm and a CA supporting a "legacy" algorithm - and the latter should only be used as long as there are clients that aren't able to validate the other algorithms.
    On the CA, start regedit and locate the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\CertSvc\Configuration\<Your CA>\CSP
    I am assuming that the Software CNG provider is used with SHA256 or higher (not with SHA1).
    Change CNGHashAlgorithm to SHA1 and restart the CA service.
    The setting can be reverted by changing the value back. All certificates and all CRLs signed by this CA will use the new hash algorithm after the restart.

  • SSL certificates and/ or Oracle Certificate Authority

    Our Oracle infrastructure is as follows:
    1.Database server
    (a)Oracle 9i R2 database
    (b) Oracle ApEx 2.2
    2. Infrastructure server
    (a) Oracle 10g (9.0.4.x.x) Infrastructure
    (b) OID - configured as external authentication to Microsoft 2003 Active Directory LDAP version 3
    (c) SSO - configured as Windows Native authentication
    3. Application server
    (a)Oracle 10g (9.0.4.x.x) Forms and reports server
    Network traffic currently is not encrypted. All we need is to ensure that network traffic is encrypted between the the end-user PC and all servers (database or app server)
    I was reading through Oracle Certificate Authority and Secure Sockets Layer.
    1. Is there a difference between the two products?
    2. Which product would be best to ensure the encryption (authentication is provided through MS LDAP)
    Thanks,
    Mayura

    Certificate authority and SSL are two completely different concepts. They can be related but are by no means similar.
    SSL is a service or a feature, not a product. SSL is used to encrypt the traffic. Part of SSL is the use of certificates for authentication. A server or user would pass a certificate as part of an SSL transmission.
    The certificates used for enrypted transmission(SSL), can be obtained from the Oracle Certificate Authority(OCA), or by a third party certificate authority. OCA is not required to use SSL.
    To achieve a fully encrypted envrinment, you would need to use SSL at several layers. This would be done with or without the use of the Oracle certificate authority.
    1. From the web browser to the middle tier
    2. End user to database
    3. from the middle tier to OID
    4. from the middle tier to the database
    5. From OID to active directory

  • Certificate authority Server (Digitial Certificate)

    Hi Everyone ,
    We are planing to to buy a digital Certificate Manager, which we will be using to issue certificates to our all the cisco routers placed at ATM machines.
    so that they can be authenticated and then to be connected via VPN to main branch.
    I did some google and found many certificate authority issuing server , like , RSA , Digi-Cert , IBM and many more, i am just confused which one is best to implement here.
    Any suggestion will be highly appriciated.

    If this is internal and you only need it for devices you controll you can create your own Certificate Authority on Linux/Windows

  • Rejected client certificate by the server

    Hello everyone.
    I writting you because a I have a big problem using ssl and client authenticate.
    I created a connector for the client connetions:
    <Connector port="9443"
         maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
         keystoreFile="C:/WINDOWS/security/server.ks"

    enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
    acceptCount="100" debug="0" scheme="https" secure="true"
    clientAuth="true" sslProtocol="SSL" />
    As it is for educational propurses, I created my own self-signed CA using openssl and generate a certificate request for the
    web server and then I signed with the self-signed CA.
    Then I created a client certificate and I signed with the self-signed CA, I import the self-signed CA in firefox as a
    certificate authority and the client certificate as a client certificate, but when I try to establish a connection I got this
    error message: "Could not establish an encrypted connection because your certificate was rejected by agatha. Error Code -12271"
    (agatha is the apache server).
    I got a openssl manual and I saw I followed the right steps to create the CA and the client certificate, I also read that the
    common name of the client must match an entry in tomcat-users.xml, I created an entry with this common name and
    the error message still apears.
    When I use Internet Explorer I get a error page with this title: The page cannot be displayed
    I opened the stdout.log file and there is a exception repeted 5 times:

    What is happening??? is there something wrong??

    That didn't work for me - as well as a host of other things that did not work for me. I can honestly say that Netbeans is the worst piece of junk software I've ever used in the entirety of my life and my previous one thousand lives.
    The best way to rid yourself of this problem is to uninstall Netcrap and run over to Eclipse. But beyond that, edit your [$TOMCAT_HOME]/conf/web.xml file and rip out the following section from the top - where Netcrap snuck it in, and didn't remove - even causing config errors after I turned it off.

    I'm using 4.0 on Linux. Thing has got a couple of cool features, but nothing beats dependability, and a darn config interface that actually makes sense. I mean, turn off some features and you can't even open your past projects?! WTF?! But no indication! But first the icon looks good! And then you click on it and it disappears! Un-effing-believable! And it took me hours to figure out how to set up a dang server! I just assumed it didn't have the ability to do it at all! The source-code control config is whack. Man. Total lack of useful documentation, no decent news/web boards. Totally outrageous.
    Worst. Software. Ever.

  • How to find/replace existing certificates before decommissioning certificate authority?

    We plan to decommission a multi-use server that also contains our internal certificate authority and replace it with new dedicated CA servers in a more secure design (offline root CA etc.).
    Before we decommission our existing CA servers, how do we find a list of all the issued certificates that are still valid?
    We would need replace all those old certificates with new certificates from our new CA so the applications that use them don't break when the old certificates are removed/revoked and before we remove the GPO setting that makes our current CA a trusted root
    CA for our domain computers. 

    on CA server you can filter issued certificates by "Certificate Expiration Date" column. In the Certification Authority MMC snap-in, select Issued Certificates folder, then click View -> Filter. Add a filter that would filter certificates
    where "Certificate Expiration Date" is greater than current date.

  • Secured Sybase Web Service with outside certificate authority

    Hello,
    I would like to use Secured Sybase Web Service with outside certificate authority, like Symantec. Could you let me know how I can create CSR for sending to Symantec? What other steps do I need to do?
    Thanks,
    Sudarat.

    Hello Jason,
    Thanks for your reply. The certificate authority require the CSR file before issue a signed certificate. If this is a signed certificate for IIS web server, I can create CSR from IIS. But I cannot use a signed certificate created from CSR of IIS with Sybase Web Service. The below steps are what I have tried.
    1. I use CreateCert.exe with /r parameter to create CSR and private key.
    2. I sent CSR to a certificate authority and they send back a signed certificate.
    3. I have to combine a signed certificate from #2 with private key created from #1. Then use that file to specify with -xs{https …when starting the service.
    Are the above steps what I have to do?  If so, do I need to redistribute createcert.exe to my customers who want to use my application and how? Why I cannot use the signed certificate created from CSR of IIS?
    Thanks,
    Sudarat.

  • Certificate Authority chain issue

    Hello,
    I have a problem with using root and sub Certificates in our PKI environment. Specifically, I have a problem with the way the Java implementation of certificates is working in our environment.
    We use Entrust as our external Certificatation Authority. We are a predominantly Microsoft environment and have implemented PKI for user accounts and Smartcard logons across our domain. Our certificates are generated under Entrusts certificatation authority and we have added their DCOMROOTCA and DCOMSUBCA (Root and Subordinate) certificates to our trusted root certification Authorities store for all MS clients. Entrust have recently reissued their DCOMROOTCA and DCOMSUBCA certificates and we have included those new certificates in our trusted root certification Authorities store. The old Entrust certificates are still valid and dont expire for another 2 years. Our PKI environment and authentication continues to work as normal in an MS environment.
    In a Windows environment which is using Microsoft’s implementation of certificates, a smart card which was issued under Entrust’s old root certificate will successfully authenticate with a certificate issued under Entrusts’s new root certificate.
    I am having a problem with VMWare View. VMWare View is a Web interface broker server which uses Java’s implementation of certificate security, ie uses keytool.exe and cacerts as its trusted certificate store. I have secured the web interface with a certificate issued under Entrust’s new root certificate. I am trying to authenticate with a smart card which has been issued with a certificate under Entrust’s old root certificate. This has not been successful. I have imported the old DCOMROOT and DCOMSUB certificates and the new DCOMROOT and DCOMSUB certificates into the cacerts file. The client (a Wyse Terminal) also has the old and new DCOMROOT and DCOMSUB certificates in its trusted store. When I attempt to logon I get the following event in the logs on the Web interface broker server:
    16:54:18,789 DEBUG <pool-1-thread-17> PooledProcessor SSL handshake exception from /10.42.2.138:2867, error was: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: Certificate signature validation failed
    If I reissue the Smartcard with a new certificate which has been generated under Entrust's new root and sub certificates I am able to successfully authenticate.
    The conclusion I can draw from this is that Java certification (at least in the way I have set it up) breaks if a new issuing certificate is being used to generate a certificate to secure the Web interface and an old issuing certificate is being used on a smart card / client.
    Does this sound correct? Is this a known issue or have I not imported or setup up the certificate chains correctly?
    Any advice would be most welcome.
    Many thanks,
    Ben

  • Certificate Authority w/ NDES-SCEP

    Hello,
    I am embarking on a project that I would like to get some feedback on.
    We are in the process of implementing iPhones into our network. The iPhone is going to run a VPN. Most likely, we will run the Anyconnect VPN client. I have this
    and it is working fine.
    However, we have to manually connect to the VPN, put in the domain password, and connect before we can check our email. This is cumbersome. So, I am trying to use
    certificate based authentication and the iPhones “connect on demand” feature.
    I have read about a number of people using a Windows Server and running Certificate Services & Network Device Enrollment Service. This uses a protocol called
    SCEP – Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol. The idea is that the iPhone would be issued a certificate by the windows server. Then, when it went to connect to the VPN, it would present the certificate as credentials to the ASA. The ASA would send the
    certificate to the windows server and the windows server would tell the ASA if it’s good. If the windows server said it was good, the ASA would then allow the VPN to connect.
    I have the Certificate Authority (windows server 2008 R2) installed and running. However, I am encountering some trouble getting the iPhone to get the certificate
    from it.
    I have read a number of white papers and forum postings from Microsoft, Cisco, and Apple. Some indications are that it’s feasible, but I am crossing a lot of
    technologies that are new to me and I am not sure if I am working uphill or what.
    My questions are…
    1). Is this is known configuration? Have you seen this configuration before? Was it successful?
    2). Does this sound feasible? Is there a more feasible way to provide VPN connectivity? The goal is to open the VPN from the phone when they open the email application,
    without having any user interaction.
    3). Within the Microsoft Certificate Services server, am I going to be able to manage the certificates individually and identify jim’s certificate separate
    from sally’s certificate? Or, sally’s iphone certificate separately from sally’s ipad certificate? Also, what is made to prevent anyone from enrolling a device with the server?
    4). Do you know of any good documentation on this? I have read a number of articles and white papers. But, for some reason, there still seems to be something lacking.
    Seems like all the established documentation only addresses one aspect of this.
    At any rate, any comments or suggestions in regards to the above would be much appreciated. I appreciate that this is a Microsoft forum. So, I don't expect much commentary
    in regards to the Cisco / Apple side of this. But, whatever you can conribute from the windows server perspective would be great.

  • HT201336 Hi I have a certificate expired and was wondering how can I update it ?

    I have an apple Iphone certificate expired and I was wondering how do you renew it?

    No answers, just some questions...  (I'm not sure what you're asking.)
    Where did the certificate originate?  An Apple iPhone certificate?  For what?  For iOS development?  For VPN?  For accessing remote web services, on a server?    This is the OS X Server 10.6 forum; are you working with certificates with that operating system, or with certificates on an iPhone?
    If your OS X Server system has an expired certificate, you'll need to either purchase a new certificate, or generate a new self-signed certificate and load that via the Certificate Assistant and Server Admin tools.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard "Certificate Authority Service" / Exchange Server 2010 EMC not starting and no AD connectivity for authentication.

    Hello,
    I am a new IT Manager at this company and need assistance big time. Their environment looks as follows:
    Server 1. Domain Controller Server (Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard) running active directory.
    Server 2. Email Server (Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard) running Exchange Server 2010 .
    * Note. No back ups to work with aside from whats mentioned below.
    DC had a virus infection causing a lot of issues on the shared network drives 2 days ago locking up all the files with a crypto ransom virus. Running Avast suppressed the infection. Had to recover the file shares which luckily had a back up. 
    The issue is that the Exchange Server 2 post this lost connectivity with the AD Server 1. Exchange Server 2 when launching EMC could not launch the console stating the following:
    "No Exchange servers are available in any Active Directory sites. You can’t connect to remote
    Powershell on a computer that only has the Management Tools role installed."
    Shortly after I found that it is possible the EMC launcher was corrupt and needed to be reinstalled following another blog post. I deleted the exchange management console.msc  per instructions only to discover I couldnt relaunch it because there was
    no way how. So I copied another msc file that happened to be on the DC Server 1  back to Exchange Server 2 and got it to launch again. 
    Another post said that it might be an issue with the Domain Account for the Computer, so to delete it in the AD Server 1 only to find that rejoining it from Exchange Server 2 using Computer>Properties> Chage Settings > Change is greyed out because
    it is using the Certificate Authority Service.
    I tried manually re-adding the computer in AD and modeling permissions after another server in group settings but no go. After this I was unable to login to the Exchange Server 2 with domain accounts but only local admin, receiving the following Alert:
    "The Trust Relationship between this workstation and primary domain failed."
    I tried running the Power Shell tools on Exchange Server 2 to rejoing and to reset passwords for domain accounts as noted in some other blogs but no luck as the Server 2 could not make the connection with Server1 or other errors it kept spitting out.
    I also during the investigation found the DNS settings were all altered on both the Server 1 and Server 2 which I luckily was able to change back to original because of inventorying it in the beginning when I started. 
    I need help figuring out if I need to rejoin the Exchange Server 2 manually by disabling the Certificate Authority Service (or removing the CA as listed here:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/fb23deab-0a12-410d-946c-517d5aea7fae/windows-server-2008-r2-with-certificate-authority-service-to-rejoin-domain?forum=winserversecurity
    and getting exchange server to launch again. (Mind you I am relatively fresh to server managing) Please help E-Mail has been down for a whole day now!
    Marty

    I recommend that you open a ticket with Microsoft Support before you break things more.
