Configuring Client certificate

Hi
I have generated server side certificate using the certificate I got from my CA which is working fine. Due to the nature of the application we are hosting, we would like to have client certificates. This would mean that we will issue client certificates to users to install on their machines and to access the service.
I have generated all my server ssl configs using keytool. Now I dont have any idea on how to configure client certificate.
Please help us with this.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi Again,
This is what I have done for server:
1. Generate keypair for server in file keystore.jks
2. For testing i am using self signed certificate, therefore I exported the certificate from above to server.cer file
3. I again imported the certificate in step 2 to truststore file named cacerts.jks
This is what I have done for client:
1. Generated keypair for client in the file named clientkeystore.jks
2. Exported the certifcate generated to file client.cer
3. Then exported the client.cer to truststore file which is cacerts.
    <Connector port="443" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
               maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
               enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true"
               acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true"
               clientAuth="true" sslProtocol="TLS" keystoreFile="C:\Documents and Settings\Deepak\keystore.jks" keypass="changeit"
                  truststoreFile="C:\Documents and Settings\Deepak\cacerts.jks" />Now from the client machines I have installed the client.cer in the broswer and trying to access the service but it fails. This is the error I am getting:
An error occurred during a connection to localhost.
SSL peer cannot verify your certificate.
*(Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_alert)*
Please check my process and please advice where I went wrong.
Thanks
Deepak

How can you configure an Exchange Account in Mac OS X to use a SSL client certificate?

I'm trying to connect the Mail App of Mac OS X to my company's Exchange server. For security reasons you have provide a SSL client certificate to the server. You can convince Safari to use a client certificate by putting it into your keychain and configuring a suitable "identity preference" for the URL of the related site. But the Mail App seems not to use the keychain for this part of the SSL negotiations.
Since you can configure the client certificate usage for an Exchange Account for the iPhone with the Configuration Utility there should be a way for the desktop App, too. Has someone sorted this issue out already or does the Mail App actually lack of client certificate support?

I had a nice chat with the Apple end user support which revealed that this feature falls in the responsibility of the business support group. Since I have no appropriate support contract I could ask for help for about 480€ per issue -- nice try
After more research I found the Configuration Profile Reference, where you get information about Exchange accounts too. Starting with a working iOS-Profile I changed the Exchange account part according to this documentation for OS X. All you have to do is to replace PayloadType com.apple.eas.account by com.apple.ews.account.
After importing this profile I found the expected Exchange account within the Contacts.app. But the SSL client certificate was still not used and therefore my account not usable.
You could enable Mail, Calendar & Reminders and Notes within the System Preferences, but neither of these would work due to the missing client certificate support.
I came to the conclusion that the relevant applications in OS X have no proper SSL Client support build in. Since the underlying libraries and frameworks have everything in place that is really a shame.
Would be nice, if someone would enforce the developers to do their homework there.

Project Server 2010 Web services access with Client Certificate Authentication

We switched our SharePoint/Project Server 2010 farm to use client certificate authentication with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) 2.0, which is working without issue. We have some administrative Project Server Interface (PSI)
web service applications that no longer connect to server with the new authentication configuration. Our custom applications are using the WCF interface to access the public web services.
Please let us know if it is possible to authenticate with AD FS 2.0 and then call
Project Server web services. Any help or coding examples would be greatly appreciated.

what is the error occurred when the custom PSI app connects?
can you upload the ULS logs here for research?
What is the user account format you specified in the code for authentication?
For proper authorization, the “user logon account” in PWA for the user needs to be changed from domain\username to the claims token (e.g.
'I:0#.w|mybusinessdomain\ewmccarty').
It requires you to manually call the UpnLogon method of
“Claims to Windows Token Service”. if (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity is ClaimsIdentity)
{ var identity = (ClaimsIdentity)Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity; }
if (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity is ClaimsIdentity)
var identity = (ClaimsIdentity)Thread.CurrentPrincipal.Identity;
Than you need to extract UPN-Claim from the identity.
Upload the verbose log if possible.
Did you see this?

IPhone Mail app; IMAP; x509 client certificate?

The title says it all really.
I have an x509 client certificate happily installed in my iPhone's keychain. This certificate works correctly in Safari, allowing access to sites which demand it. When I try to collect mail from an IMAP server which also requires a client certificate, it doesn't work.
As far as I can work out, the Mail app is not sending my client certificate when the server requests it to do so. Is this true? Is there a way to configure the Mail app to respond correctly to the server's client certificate request? Any pointers or information welcome!

I think so.
Actually I think I need to get the App Password for Mail on my phone. It generates the app password and I enter it into the password in the gmail setup for mail.
The problem is that when I hit next on that page, I get the message:
"my name" is already added" and I cannot proceed.
Before doing this setup I deleted my gmail account by tapping the email address and hitting delete in the Mail, Contact and Calendars setup..
but, there is something hiding in my iPhone that remembers my old gmail password (I guess) and doesn't let me proceed.
If I enter my gmail iChain password I get the same thing.
If i do this in airplane mode (no connection to google) i also get the same.
I talked to an apple care person who had me reset all my settings... still the same thing.
I am trying to avoid a gull reset of the iPhone, but that may be in the cards.
Going to go to the apple store and ask there, but i am not hopeful.

Client certificate authentication with custom authorization for J2EE roles?

We have a Java application deployed on Sun Java Web Server 7.0u2 where we would like to secure it with client certificates, and a custom mapping of subject DNs onto J2EE roles (e.g., "visitor", "registered-user", "admin"). If we our web.xml includes:
<login-config>
    <auth-method>CLIENT-CERT</auth-method>
    <realm-name>certificate</realm-name>
<login-config>that will enforce that only users with valid client certs can access our app, but I don't see any hook for mapping different roles. Is there one? Can anyone point to documentation, or an example?
On the other hand, if we wanted to create a custom realm, the only documentation I have found is the sample JDBCRealm, which includes extending IASPasswordLoginModule. In our case, we wouldn't want to prompt for a password, we would want to examine the client certificate, so we would want to extend some base class higher up the hierarchy. I'm not sure whether I can provide any class that implements javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule, or whether the WebServer requires it to implement or extend something more specific. It would be ideal if there were an IASCertificateLoginModule that handled the certificate authentication, and allowed me to access the subject DN info from the certificate (e.g., thru a javax.security.auth.Subject) and cache group info to support a specialized IASRealm::getGroupNames(string user) method for authorization. In a case like that, I'm not sure whether the web.xml should be:
<login-config>
    <auth-method>CLIENT-CERT</auth-method>
    <realm-name>MyRealm</realm-name>
<login-config>or:
<login-config>
    <auth-method>MyRealm</auth-method>
<login-config>Anybody done anything like this before?

Client certificate authentication on ASA 5520

Hi,
We have configured certificate authentication for remote access IPSEC vpn and it is working fine. This is using the same internal Certificate Authority server for both the identity certificate of the ASA and the client certificates issued to remote clients.
We now wish to use a different CA which is a subordinate of the existing CA for client certificates - we want to keep the existing identity certificate using the root CA.
How do we ensure that the ASA will authenticate clients using certificates published by the old root CA and the new subordinate CA? What is the process to follow on the GUI to do this? Do I just add another CA certificate under the 'certificate management>CA certificates' window with a new ADSM trustpoint, or is there more steps?

Hi Paul,
I generate a PCKS#12 file that enclosed the client certificate + the associated private key + the CA certchain.
I deployed it on client host machine by juste sending it by e-mail/ USB key/ Web plushing.
Depending of your client OS version, the client certificate should be present in, the "login" store of keychain repository on a MAC OS-X client and in the "personal" store of the certificate repository on a Windows client.
And that it.

Client Certificate Authentication

Hi guys
I am not sure if this is the right place to ask but here I go. We are trying to find the best option to push client certificates to our user's Mobile Devices so they just log into a website, type their credentials and the user certificated get pushed.
We have implemented Workplace Join, this allows us to use the certificate pushed by ADFS to log into a webapp with the only once, then for some reason (still under investigation) doesn't work anymore.
I have also read about Client Certificate Mapping Authentication with IIS and AD but obviously the Client Certificate has to be in the mobile device in order to accomplish the authentication.
Windows Intune ultimately will do the trick but the idea of this research is to find out what's available in Microsoft platform.
any help would be truly appreciated
Jesus

If IIS is used for certificate distribution (and access to CRLs), I think this could be done with Active Directory Certificate Services.
Users could go to the website of the issuing certificate authorities and make a request.
I've only done this for real with Group Policy triggering the request behind the scenes for *domain members* and approval based on membership in a particular group.
So I'm not 100% sure how you would configure automatic issuance of the cert based on entry of a correct password. Usually, the "certificate managers" have to approve per company policy.
I'll look further though (interested in this myself).
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.

Client Certificate Prompting

Environment:
Windows 2003 Server
IIS 6.0
Java Applets
JVM 1.6
I currently have IIS set to "accept client certificates" and have a valid list in my Certificate Trust List of certificates I want to accept. I also have Windows Authentication set in the event the user does not have a valid client certificate type then they will be prompted for their Windows Login. My problem is that even though they authenticate via Windows they are still being prompted for certificates by the JVM and of course there are none in IEs store.
Is there a way to stop this or is this just a way of life.

I think it is related to the certificate you are using: what are the available CRL's (Certificate Revocation List) in that certificate? You can see that by opening the properties of the cert. The client might want to check the CRL of your CA and has no permission
to do it.
You might want to check if the CRL distribution point as configured in the certification is accessible by the client or generate a different certificate with a different distribution point.

Client Certificate Mapping authentication using Active Directory across trusted forests

Hi,
We currently have a setup where the on-premises environment and the cloud environment are based on two separate forests linked by a 1-way trust, i.e., the exist in the on-premises AD and the 1-way trust allows them to use their
credentials to login to a cloud domain joined server. This works fine with the Windows authentication.
We are now looking at implementing a 2-Factor authentication using Certificate. The PKI infrastructure exists in the On-Premises Forest. The users are able to successfully login to on-premise servers configured with "AD CLient Certificate
Mapping".
However, we are unable to achieve the same functionality on the cloud domain joined servers. I would like to know
1. Is this possible?
2. If yes, what do we need to do to make this work.
Just to clarify, we are able to authenticate using certificates by enabling anonymous authentication. However, we are unable to do the same after turning on "Client Certificate Mapping authentication using Active Directory"

1. Yes!
2. Before answering this I need to know if your are trying to perform a smart card logon on a desktop/console or if you just want to use certificate based authentication in an application like using a web application with client certificate requirements
and mapping?
/Hasain
We will eventually need it for smartcard logon on to desktop/console. However, at present, I am trying to use this for certificate based authentication on a web application.
To simulate the scenario, I setup up two separate forests and established a trust between them.
I then setup a Windows PKI in one of the forests and issued a client certificate to a user.
I then setup a web server in both the forests and configured them for anonymous authentication with Client SSL requirement configured.
I setup a test ASP page to capture the Login Info on both the servers.
With the client and the server in the same forest, I got the following results
Login Info
LOGON_USER: CORP\ASmith
AUTH_USER: CORP\ASmith
AUTH_TYPE: SSL/PCT
With the client in the domain with the PKI and the server in the other Forest, I got the following response
Login Info
LOGON_USER:
AUTH_USER:
AUTH_TYPE:
I tried the configuration with the Anonymous Authentication turned off and the AD CLient Certificate mapping turned on.
With the client and the server in the same forest, I am able to login to the default page. However, with the server in a trusted forest, I get the following error.
401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied

Designating the specific client certificate to use from within an applet

With JRE 1.4.x, my applet will use a specific client certificate for connection to an https url which requires a client certificate - I did that by defining runtime parameters for the jre (-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=...) but with JRE 1.5.x, the same runtime options doesn't seem to have any effect (even if I configure the plugin not to use the browser's store of certificates).
I like the new "use browser certifcate store" feature of the JRE 1.5.x, but can I have a way to designate, programmatically in the code of my applet, which specific certificate to use?

HTTP Error 403.16 - Forbidden, Your client certificate is either not trusted or is invalid.

Dear Experts,
I have tried mutual authentication with sample website as per below link:
http://itq.nl/testing-with-client-certificate-authentication-in-a-development-environment-on-iis-8-5/#comment-19427
1. Created a Root certificate, client and server certificate based on this root certificate by using Makecert command as per below link:
2. Import these certificates in Trusted Root Certification authority of both the stores (Local and Current user)
3. Created a sample website with HTML page
4.Hosted this website in IIS with HTTPS binding and selected the above server certifcate
5. Enabled "Require SSL" and selected "Require" under SSL settings of website
6. Exported the client certificate in base64 format --> Edited in notepad --> made the key into single line
7. Placed the above key under Configuration editor --> system.webServer/security/authentication/iisClientCertificateMappingAuthentication --> one to one mapping with user credentials.
8. I tried to access the website
But, I ended with below error :(
HTTP Error 403.16 - Forbidden

Hi Prasad,
As per this case, I have been shared the corresponding details below
1.First of all,make sure that you import the certificate whether it belongs to Trusted RootCertification or not .
    If that is the case ,Goto Microsoft Management Console (MMC), open the Certificates snap-in.
    For instance, the certificate store that WCF is configured to retrieve X.509 certificates from, select the Trusted RootCertification Authoritiesfolder. Under the Trusted Root Certification Authorities folder, right-click the Certificatesfolder,
point to All Tasks, and then click Import.
2.you configured the server certificate as well, But check the client certificate whether have root certificate or not by following command?
makecert -pe -n "CN=SSLClientAuthClient"
         -eku 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2 -is root -ir localmachine -in WebSSLTestRoot
         -ss my -sr currentuser -len 2048
3. Also check the Service Certificate whether its configured on the WCF Service side
4.Make sure that you followed all the steps are done correctly from your given referred link below
http://itq.nl/testing-with-client-certificate-authentication-in-a-development-environment-on-iis-8-5/#comment-19427

PKI SCCM Client Certificate Template not viewable by Windows 7 and Server 2008 workgroup machines.

Hello everyone,
I’m having issues with workgroup computers, not domain systems when I request a certificate.
It’s extremely weird. It has something to do with Windows 7 and Windows 2008 machines. In 2003 server I can request a certificate manually with certutil and it see the certificate template. I copy over the exact command
on windows 7 and it can’t see the certificate template.
I have the following configuration:
CA Enterprise
I have created the SCCM Client Certificate
I have created the SCCM Web Server Certificate
I have created the SCCM Distribution Point Certificate
GPO is configured
SCCM 2012 R2 CU2 configured to do HTTP and HTTPS
Installed SCCM Client Certificate
Installed SCCM Web Server Certificate
Installed Distribution Point Certificate
Deployed to a domain computer good on PKI
Workgroup Computers:
I’m having issues with deploying certificates
Windows 7 –
(ERROR) not successful
Windows Server 2008 R2 –
(ERROR) not successful
Windows Server 2003 - successful
Windows XP – successful
How I’m getting the certs for the clients is by utilizing the following scripts from this URL.
http://www.ithierarchy.com/ITH/node/48
I did find a couple of errors in the code, but if it’s working on my Server 2003, then it should work on the others. Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 seem to have the same issue. The error I’m getting is the following:
Command line requesting the cert ---- CertReq –new –f testcomputer.home.pvt.inf c:\client\testcomputer.home.pvt.req
Error --- Template not found.
SCCMClientCertificate (this is my template)

Just to give an update on what’s happening with this. I found out this format is unsupported by MS with Windows Vista and newer OS’s.
Instead you must utilize two other additional roles on the CA to have this work. The caviate is, I’m down to the testing and it’s not working as in the document. I have MS Support
working with me to resolve this issue since it was written by MSFT.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2010/05/25/enabling-cep-and-ces-for-enrolling-non-domain-joined-computers-for-certificates.aspx
and use this doc for similar workgroup computers for rolling out certs. This was written for RT devices, however, it should work once I get to that point.

Error 403.7 - Forbidden: SSL client certificate is required

Hi people!
I�m developing a java client to a WebService (developed in .NET). The communication protocol is HTTPS to the URL where the Web Service is located (something like https://10.200.140.117/dirNotes/serviceName.asmx.). I�ve been reading many posts but I could'nt find the solution to the problem wich has the following message: Error 403.7 - Forbidden: SSL client certificate is required".
I�m using JDK 1.5 and developing and testing on Windows Plataform. I'm able to access the URL specified above directly from the browser, I installed the client certificate (the same that �ve put into the ,jks keystore. I�ve also imported the whole certificate chain of the server to the cacerts.
I�ll paste the code and the console trace below. I�d be very grateful if you can help me. Thanks a lot.

I'm having the same problem with the same URL. I try many configuration and nothing works. My code is:
public class NFeClient {
     static{
          Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());
     public static void main(final String[] args) throws Exception {
          final String path = "https://homologacao.nfe.sefaz.rs.gov.br/ws/nfeconsulta/nfeconsulta.asmx";
          final String keyStoreProvider = "BC";
          final String keyStoreType = "PKCS12";
          final String keyStore = "/home/mendes/certificados/cert.p12";
          final String keyStorePassword = "xxxx";
          System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreProvider",keyStoreProvider);
          System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType",keyStoreType);
          System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore",keyStore);
          System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword",keyStorePassword);
          System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore","/home/mendes/workspace/NFE/jssecacerts");
          final SSLContext context = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");
          final KeyManagerFactory kmf = KeyManagerFactory.getInstance("SunX509");
          final KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance(keyStoreType);
          ks.load(new FileInputStream(keyStore), keyStorePassword.toCharArray());
          kmf.init(ks, keyStorePassword.toCharArray());
          context.init(kmf.getKeyManagers(), null, null);
          final URL url = new URL(path);
          final HttpsURLConnection httpsConnection = (HttpsURLConnection) url.openConnection();
          httpsConnection.setDoInput(true);
          httpsConnection.setRequestMethod("GET");
          httpsConnection.setRequestProperty("Host", "iis-server");
          httpsConnection.setRequestProperty("UserAgent", "Mozilla/4.0");
          httpsConnection.setSSLSocketFactory(context.getSocketFactory());
          try{
               final InputStream is = httpsConnection.getInputStream();
               final byte[] buff = new byte[1024];
               int readed;
               while((readed = is.read(buff)) > 0)
                    System.out.write(buff,0,readed);
          }catch(final IOException ioe){
               ioe.printStackTrace();
}and the response of the server is always the same:
java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: https://homologacao.nfe.sefaz.rs.gov.br/ws/nfeconsulta/nfeconsulta.asmx
