How do i use Third Party certificates when setting up Lync 2013

Hi,
I'm currently installing a trial of Lync 2013 for my company and it has got to the stage of adding in certificates. My company have no wish to add in a Certificate Authority unless its vital, they have asked if its possible to use a third party certificate
provider. I have no idea how to go about this and would appreciate any help on where to get a certificates from as well as how to import these into Lync.
Many thanks
John 

Yes it is possible. Thankfully Lync makes it very easy. When you deploy Lync one of the steps in the Lync Deployment Tool is to Request and Assign Certificates.
It's a wizard that will create the CSR for you and basically include all the required names.
You will however need UCC certificates for most things  (that support multiple Subject Alternate Names) so it may get a little expensive.
The CA you choose is really up to you, but GoDaddy do some pretty reasonably priced UCC certificates. Digicert is also another commonly used CA

  • Replace Self-Signed FAST Search Certificate with Third Party Certificate

    We are trying to replace the Self-Signed FAST Search Certificate with Third Party Certificate in our SP 2010 environment. And are facing issues while enabling the SSL communication between the FAST servers and the corporate servers.
    Our FAST search servers are in a different farm than that of the Corporate Servers.
    The details of the certificate we received is as follows:
    Issued to : FastSearchCert
    Issued By: Issuer Name
    Valid From: 4/21/2015 to 4/20/2017
    We were able to successfully renew the certificate on the FAST Search Server by following the below steps:
    1.  Login to the Administrative and the Non-Administrative nodes 
    of the FAST server. Go to Windows Service and stop the FAST Search for SharePoint and the FAST Search for SharePoint Monitoring services in both the servers.
    Follow the below steps in the Administrative Node followed by the Non-Administrative Node
    2. 
    Install the certificate in the following paths in the certificate store:
    “Certificates(Local Computer)\Personal”
    “Certificates(Local Computer)\Trusted Root Certification Authorities”
    3. Ensure that the user account configured for the “FAST Search Server 2010 for SharePoint” has access to the private key of the certificate.
    4. Go the Administrative node of the FAST farm and follow the below steps:
    Go to the certificate store.
    Expand the Personal folder and then click the Certificates folder. Double-click the third party signed FAST certificate.
    Open the Details tab and then click Thumbprint. Note down this thumbprint.
    5. Next, open
    Microsoft FAST Search Server 2010 for SharePoint with Administrator
    Privileges.
    6.
    Navigate to the directory, “D:\FASTSearch\installer\scripts” and execute the below command to replace the current certificate with the newly created
    third party signed FAST certificate.
    .\ReplaceDefaultCertificate.ps1 -thumbprint "certificate thumbprint".
    7. The FAST certificate was renewed successfully.
    Once the certificate has been renewed successfully in both the nodes, follow the below step:
    8. Start the FASTSearch for SharePoint and the FAST Search
    for SharePoint Monitoring services in the administrator server.
    Next, while enabling the SSL communication between the FAST servers and the other corporate servers, we follow the below steps:
    1. 
    Copy the new certificate from any of the FAST servers to all the web-front end and application servers in the corporate farm, in order to enable SSL communication between these servers and the FAST farm.
    2.   Also, copy the script
    ‘SecureFASTSearchConnector.ps1’ from the location “%FASTSearchFolder%\installer\scripts” in the FAST servers 
    to the web-front end and application servers of the corporate farm.
    3.  Follow the below steps on each of the servers in the corporate farm:
    Open ‘SharePoint 2010 Management Shell’ with administrator privileges and navigate to the directory in which
    SecureFASTSearchConnector.ps1’ script is located.
    And then, execute the below command:
     .\SecureFASTSearchConnector.ps1 -certThumbprint "certificate thumbprint" –ssaName “FASTCibtebtSSA” –username “DOMAIN\SP_Farm”
     Where,
    -certThumbprint 
    - Thumbprint of the certificate
    -ssaName – FAST Content SSA
    -username – The account configured to run the SharePoint
    Search Service
    On execution of the above command, we receive an error message stating that the "Connection to the Content Distributor servername.corp.abc.org: 14391 could not be validated...instance of FAST search server backend is running"
    Please help us resolve this issue. We have not been able to find the cause of the above error for a long time.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    Your tip on exporting from eDir to locate a missing private key was very helpful. Here are my steps to renew an expired third party certificate when the private key, generated 30 months ago in my case, could not be located.
    In iManager, browse the tree and locate the likely certificate object. The Attributes for the object show Subject Name = webmail.acme.com. Selected the certificate and exported to webmailcert.pfx.
    Then, the openssl commands in TID 7004039, "How to convert a SSL PFX to a PEM file", were run against the .pfx file to create cert.pem, key.pem and server.key files.
    TID 7015500, "How to determine if private key belongs to public key (certificate)", was followed to determine if the public key (downloaded from third party) and private key (just retrieved from iManager) match - they did - that is, the private key converted from webmailcert.pfx matches the downloaded certificate.
    TID 7013103, "How to create a .pem File for SSL certificate Installations", was followed to manually create a server.pem file using openssl.
    TID 7010584, "How to setup SSL Certificate for Apache", part labeled "Additional Information" was followed to modify /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/vhost-ssl.conf file. Server.pem file created above copied to /etc/apache2/ssl.crt/ and /etc/ssl/servercerts/ directories as specified in vhost-ssl.conf.
    Restarted apache2.
    www.digicert.com has an SSL Certificate Checker that can be used to verify the installation is successful.

  • Install third party certificate on MAC os X

    Hello,
    I have installed leport 10.5.X on my machine. I am new bie for MAc and want to install intermediate certificate for my domain from Digicert. I have registered from Digicsert. Please help me to how can I install on the machine. I also need to create a new certificate but when I tried to add it shows an error message like this.

    Can anybody please help me to what should be the next step.
    And how can I install third party certificate.
    Thanks in advance.

    There is a product called VolumeWorks that is supposed to do this. I looked at the demo, but I could not get it to see the extra space so I ended up backing it all up and erasing the Raid and doing a block copy with Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • Using third party plug-ins

    Hi.
    How do I use third party plug-ins. I've just installed SSL LMC-1 component, but i can't find in the insert pop-up menu on the Logic channel strip.

    Hi,
    I had that plugin,but it no longer shows up under Logic 7.2.3,which is what I'm running now.So I do not use it anyomer,at least until it is updated.
    Although a cool plugin,you might want to try either the Free Fish Fillets,which sound better to me,or another pay plugin like the Nomad Factory BT Compressor FA770 which is like the Fairchild,very close in fact.

  • How to use third party library (like .dll and .lib files) in flascc?

    I have a number of .dll and .lib files of the  third party library, which are generated from C++ code.
    I read about flascc on other web site says:
    "If you want to use third party library in your Flascc project,you must have either the source code or the linkable file which is compiled of the third party library   "
    Dose the linkable file mean .dll file or .lib file?
    AND
    How can I use the fuctions in them in my flascc project.?

    Native code is not interchangeable between platform.
    It means that you can't use library that wasn't build specifically for flascc.
    And when they say linkable files they mean libraries compiled for flascc, not any libraries.
    So if your libs are for windows, no luck, you have to recompile everything

  • How to do XMLDSig using third-party JCA providers?

    Hi all,
    Can anyone please let me know how to do XMLDSig using third-party JCA providers? The Sun XMLDsig documentation says that "A JSR 105 implementation SHOULD use underlying JCA engine classes, such as java.security.Signature and java.security.MessageDigest to perform cryptographic operations", but it doesn't say how to define the JCA provider programmatically. I don't want to change the Providers order in the security.properties file.
    Do we need to make any changes in the JCA provider classes to work with XMLDSig and XML encrypt?
    I'd appreciate your help.

  • How to use Third Party DLL in Adobe Illustrator Plug In

    Hi Everyone,
    I want to design plug-in for Adobe illustrator CS6(64 bit). As first step I am referring sample plug ins from ../SDK/SampleCode. I am not getting how to use third party DLL in plug in.
    Please let me know how to refer C# DLL in illustrator plug in.
    Thanks in advance.

    There's no C# API for the Illustrator SDK, so your plugin must be C++ at the very least. That said, you can probably write a bridge if you need to call out to a C# library/DLL.

  • How can i telnet or get access to other LAN members in LAN without using third party software?

    I have admin access to the main  router in our LAN, so how can i telnet or get access to other LAN  members in LAN without using third party software?

    I think you are using the wrong terminology. You can browse the hidden share of any pc if you know the ip and have a valid user account on the pc by typing in the following \\computername\c$ or \\ipaddress\c$ . It should prompt you for a user account. You may have to allow this through the windows firewall (or disable it completely).

  • Generate CSR for Third-Party Certificates

    Hi All,
    i have an issue when i tried to Generate CSR for Third-Party Certificates,
    i follow step by step in the document of cisco until this step:
    3.
    Now that your CSR is ready, copy and paste the CSR information into any CA enrollment tool.
    In order to copy and paste the information into the enrollment form, open the file in a text editor that
    does not add extra characters. Cisco recommends that you use Microsoft Notepad or UNIX vi. Refer
    to the website of the third−party CA for more information on how to submit the CSR through the
    enrollment tool.
    After you submit the CSR to the third−party CA, the third−party CA digitally signs the certificate and
    sends back the signed certificate via e−mail.
    4.
    Copy the signed certificate information that you receive back from the CA into a file.
    This example names the file CA.pem.
    my issue is where i sould copy and paste the CSR information into any CA enrollment tool. i just have done create mykey.pem and myreq.pem in my folder OpenSSL\bin
    Please help and Thanks you.
    Regards,
    Jasa

    you have to do more steps using openssl.
    before you obtain the third−part certificate, you have to copy that on a notepad text, and you have to obtain an intermediate and root certificate from the company that gives you the certificate.
    Then you have to copy and paste on a notepad or gedit:
    SSL (the certificate that they give you)
    Intermediate (the certificate that you obtain from the company that gives you the certificate)
    Root (the certificate that you obtain from the company that gives you the certificate)
    name the text file like: allcerts.pem
    then... you have to run this commands:
    C:\OpenSSL\bin>openssl pkcs12 -export -in allcerts.pem -inkey mykey.pem -out All-certs.p12 -clcerts -passin pass:yourpassword -passout pass:yourpassowrd
    C:\OpenSSL\bin>openssl pkcs12 -in All-certs.p12 -out finalcert.pem -passin pass:yourpassword -passout pass:yourpassword
    Then you are going to have a file named: finalcert.pem, thats the one you have to update to the WLC. please note that on those lines "yourpassword" is the password you use when you create the certificate and its going to be the same that you have to use for upload to WLC.
    Note that you have to use openssl version 0.9.8 because its the only version thats WLC support
    If you have doubts please contact me.
    Have fun!

  • Third party Certificate not showing up in SQL configuration manager drop down box

    Hi,
    I have an SQL instance that needs to use a third party SSL certificate for all communications to that SQL instance. I have installed my third party certificate via MMC and it is showing under the Personal Folder.
    However, when i go into the SQL configuration manager and right click the instance name > Properties > Certificates, it is not showing in the drop down box.
    I am currently using MS SQL Server 2008 R2, which is installed on Windows Server 2012. 

    Hi,
    If the certificate cannot be used for SQL Server and hence will not be visible in SQL Configuration manager. Check the validity of the installed certificate. It may not has the correct DNS name.
    I suggest you request a new third party certificate from the vendor with the correct DNS name. Install it on SQL Server environment, then you should see certificate form the configuration manager dropdown box.
    Thanks.

Yes you have to distribute thos jar, i use to put them into the "lib" folder of my project folder. I think this is the way that most of the IDE's do that but i'm not sure.
