How to trust a certificate

Checking the Certificate Manager I find things such as TurkTrust Bilgi, Trust Ges. F. Secherheitssysteme, and so on. These are listed as Builtin Object Token. What is this token? Who are these people? Is there a list somewhere about whether to delete these? Should I just delete anyone I do not recognize?

Thanks - jos

Hi,
I think the Built-in Object Token is the root certificate store that has a list of root certificates of CAs vetted by Mozilla. Depending on your browsing habits, your region, at least some or many of these would be needed to identify secure sites for you. For eg. when you connect to a banking site or email site you need a way to know that it is the correct site. This is done for you by the CAs. Through some research and trial and error you can delete the unneeded ones. If anything goes wrong, delete the '''cert8.db''' file in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox your Firefox Profile Folder] and Firefox will load the default settings again and recreate the file.
The thing is, one can either do it oneself to verify secure sites, secure content etc. or entrust an entity (CA - Certificate Authority) to do it for us. In the default case the CA's root certificates do it for us. We can add/delete root CAs, but please bear in mind that root CAs have superpowers.

SSL Error 61: chosen not to trust security certificate; How to bypass?

I am trying to utilize Citrix XenApp to remotely access my work userid and applications from home. I can login and see my virtual desktop/applications, but when I try to run an application I get SSL Error 61: you have chosen not to trust "Equifax Secure Global eBusiness CA-1" the issuer of the server's security certificate. I have tried to update the certificate (FFx says its valid), add an exception (cannot because certif is valid), uninstall/reinstall application (no good), but still no luck. Have contacted my company's IT and they are baffled as well. Any ideas to bypass or redo a setting that says I do trust this certificate would be welcome.

Pardon my ignorance, but can you please explain further. I've read over the info from the link provided but it is beyond my technical comprehension. Is the Citrix database on my end, on my company server's end?

Always trust these certificates option no longer working

Hello all,
I'm using MacOS X 10.4.4. My firm uses a lot of sites with self-signed server and CA certificates. Safari, of course, pops up a box saying "this is signed by an unknown issuer" or somesuch. Showing the details of the certificates and then checking the "always trust these certificates" used to prevent that pop-up from showing again (after entering your password).
Safari no longer does this, and each time I start Safari, I get the certificate warning even though I've checked the always trust box.
This is a major annoyance. Does anyone have any idea how to get it to stop doing this and remembering my "always trust" click?
Thanks,
Doug

I have only the "login" keychain, which was not locked when I ran Keychain Access.
I'll try this again with the application open.
Thanks,
Doug

Trusted site certificate

How do I add a trusted site certificate to my site or make IE
trust my site? Thanks.

The following may also be helpful . Getting Started with Kapsel - Appendix D -- Security

Trusting a certificate

When trying to connect my firm's citrix site, I am getting the following error:
You have chosen not to trust Go Daddy Class 2 Certification Authority,
SSL error 61
I checked and the certificate is there. I even tried deleting it and importing it again.
I am using Ubuntu and Firefox 10. I do not have this error on my windows machines or my Macs.
How do I trust this certificate. I am not given the option as in earlier version of FF to trust the certificate fro the website.

That's a common, annoying error. Take a look at http://sslerror61.org/
Yes, there is a website dedicated to it. If none of those solutions work, contact your network admin. They will know what to do. I can't do much without being in front of your computer.

How to Configuring external certificate for MEP

Hi,
I want to configuring external certificate to my mep gateway tier , can any one tell me procedure how to configure the certificate.
I am configuring behind the firewall I cannot run default port no 8181 for https , so where can I change https port no for MEP after installation and I need to import external certificates in to keystore.

Hi Jayanth,
Both issues you raise are GlassFish issues rather than MEP issues per se.
To change the port, after doing 'asadmin stop-domain mep' you just edit the
domain.xml file in the .../domains/mep/config directory manually. Search for
8181 and change it to whatever you want, then restart GlassFish (asadmin start-domain mep).
In the MEP Installation Guide, there is a section on establishing trust between
tier1 and tier2 in a two-tier configuration. See http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-7203/ggxmb?a=view
Hopefully, you can generalize that procedure to your situation.

How to use Chained Certificates from CA (Thawte) ?

Hi,
I have an application which does the communication over secured channel to another site(Say www.XYZ.com) over internet, for this xyz.com has given a certificate which is used for secured communication. Till the time certificate was self signed certificate i did not have any problem. I use to import certificate in trusted store and use it with the help of JSSE.
Now the problem is xyz.com has given a new certificate, which is chained and issued by Thawte. Now as i understand JDK Does not come with thawte as trusted CA. so we need to add the same in the keystore. The problem i am facing is how do the chain certificates work under JAVA i.e. how the chain of certificates is created in keystore file. When i import CA's self signed certificate as documented in keytool tools documentation this completes without problem. In the documentation theres is a mention regarding importing "Certificate Reply from the CA" but there is no mention about how to import a certificate given by 3rd Party i.e. xyz.com in our case. Is "Certificate Reply from the CA" and certificate from 3rd party the same. or there is some specific way in which we have to do the import to keystore?
Thanks in advance
Sachin

Thank you for taking time to reply, but this is solved now. You are right, need to import all the certificates. So what is did is exported all the certificates which were in chain from IE. Then starting from Root's self signed certificate imported all of them one by one into keystore and then provided this keystore while communication and it works
Thanks once again
Sachin

How to add a certificate to IIS global "Server Certificates" list using PowerShell?

Hi, been surfing the web for an example on how to add a certificate to the "global" IIS "Server Certificates" list using PowerShell but to no luck. I already have code in place on how to tie / associate a specific website with a specific cert but not how
to add the new .cer file using the "Complete Certificate Request..." wizard using PowerShell.... I dont expect the final code to become published but if someone had an idea on howto integrate / get an entry point on where to interact between the "Server Certificate"
list in IIS and POSH I would be super happy! :|
I am runnign IIS on a Windows 2008R2 x64 Standard Edition if that helps..... of course, I would saddle for an CLI if there is no other way, but POSH is of course the way to go! :)
Thanks for the help in advance guys, take care!

Hi and thanks for the suggestions!
Although it comes close, the suggested code example points on howto import / incorporate .pfx files - I am getting fed by .cer files which I need to add into the IIS console using POSH.
I tried explore the IIS.CertObj object but was not able to work out if this one could be used for importing / adding .cer files into IIS! However, launching the following command from a POSH console with Import-Module Webadministration already
loaded into that shell;
$certMgr = New-Object -ComObject IIS.CertObj returns the following error message:
New-Object : Cannot load COM type IIS.CertObj

might be that I am lacking some IIS components to be in place to be able to automate some parts of the IIS - as suggested by the IIS.CertObj object listed in the example..... I will get back if I can track down which component needs to be added to be
able to reference the IIS.CertObj object.

Add Files java applet does not trust our certificate

We have installed Novell Filr and it is working great except for one issue. The java applet that runs when the Add Files button is clicked does not trust our certificate authority. We purchased and installed a SSL certificate, and both IE and Firefox accept it (before installing, we got a certificate warning every time we went to Filr).
The certificate authority is Starfield Secure Certificate Authority, and we use certificates from them for our websites and mail servers, so I do not understand why this applet and/or Java do not.
Is there any way to stop the scary warning message our users get. FYI - this happens the first time the Add Files button is clicked in each session.

That sounds a little different than what this was designed to fix, but
by any chance have you installed the updated Java applets on the Filr
appliance?

Hi Paul
Whatever you do it will not work properly especially when some of the users try to use "edit in place". Save yourself the headache and install trusted certificate (primary and intermediate) then even Java will work ok.

Seeburger AS2: How to set up Certificates in PI

Hi ! ALL
We are setting up Seeburger AS2 adapters to exchange file with vendors (B2B).
can you please, share with us ..
1.How to set up certificates, decryption key, signature key.
2.Also, instead of the vendors coming directly to the PI box.....can you share if you have set up any DMZ/firewall environment and how it was set up to talk to PI, especially exchanging certificates.
Your help is greatly appreciated!!
Thank you,
Patrick
Edited by: Patrick Jones on Feb 4, 2009 10:23 PM

Hi Patrick,
For secured communication with business partners you need to implement message level security. You need to create certificates in visual administrator and exchange the public key with your business partner. Also you need to import your business partner public key in visual administrator.
For encryption - Use business partner public key
For signing - Use your private key.
For DMZ check the following help link

How to view the certificate that a component has been signed with?

Hi all,
Been using java webstart deployment for a while so understand how to sign and deploy java applications.
Question I have is how to view the certificate that was used to Sign a jar. For example, if I signed a jar "myComponent.jar" how can I then view the certificate details within this jar. I currently have an old component which I signed with an old certificate and want to view the experation details.
Thanks in advance
Simon
Edited by: simon_seagroatt on Sep 22, 2009 4:20 AM

You can use command (it will show CN, OU, O, L, etc... and expiration date, of course):
jarsigner -certs -verify -verbose pathToYourJar.jarI'd suggest redirecting output (>>out.txt).
Bye.

How to replace the certificate of Cisco 2106 wireless LAN controller for CAPWAP ?

I have interested in CAPWAP feature and I download the open capwap project to make Access Controller (AC) and Wireless Terminal Point (WTP). I had built the AC which used PC and WTP which used Atheros AP. The CAPWAP feature work well when I enabled the CAPWAP that used my own AC and WTP. When I got the Cisco 2106 wireless LAN controller (Cisco WLC), I configured the Cisco WLC to instead my own AC but I got the authorize fail in Cisco WLC side. It seem the Cisco WLC could not recognize the CAPWAP message which sent form my own WTP. I think this issue just need to synchronize the certificate between Cisco WLC and WTP.So I need to replace the Cisco WLC's certificate manually. Does anyone know how to replace the certificate manually with Cisco WLC ?
Best Regards,
Alan

Unfortunately this Support Community is for Cisco Small Business & Small Business Pro product offerings. The WLC2106 is a traditional Cisco product. You can find this type of support on the Cisco NetPro Forum for all traditional Cisco products.
