Installing OSX OD Certificate on Windows Clients

Hi,
I've tried searching high and low for this but,  I have a OD Server with OS X Clients happily trusting the server through self-signed cert's using Profile Manager to get the clients to use the OD Server as a trusted root.  All Good.
Now i have several Windows 7 machines authenticating against OS X Server using PGina and LDAP Auth,  Is there any way to get Windows 7 to also use the OD Server's cert as a root auth ?
Apologies if this has been answered before; I couldn't find a solution.
Thanks,
Gary.

Hi Robbie_DB,
You can install OS X first on your 150GB wd raptor.
restart your mac pro with the installer disk inside the optical and press C to force to start up using installer disk.
Choose language > go to utilities > disk utilities > format the WD drive, and after you finish, go back to installer by quiting disk utility and install your mac os x and select WD drive as destination.
Sometimes it require another restart before mac os can be installed to a new formatted HD.
After you fnished install OS X, go to boot camp page, and follow instruction there.
http://www.apple.com/macosx/bootcamp/
It is a good thing if you update your os x software and hardware firmware to the latest and repair permission after that before going to install boot camp.
And to select which HD you want to start from, open system preference from the Docks, click start up disk, and choose your WD drive, and restart.
As soon as everything run smoothly, you can start from WD drive, open application > utilities > disk utility, and erase / format the original HD supplied by apple f you really want to.
ps: back up any important data first, if any.
Good Luck.

  • Am I able to install OSX update within a windows partition?

    Earlier today, I restarted my computer but unfortunately, I got the circle with a slash through it. I did a bunch of research on the matter and tried everything. I tried booting to recovery and booting to safe mode to repair my permissions but nothing worked.
    I also looked into recovering some of my files that I hadn't gotten the chance to back up which included a variety of options that didn't seem to work either.
    Then out of pure curiosity, i booted to my windows partition and lo and behold, I got in. I was also able to access all my data from the mac partition. So i went ahead and backed up everything that needed to be.
    I have a friend that's been helping me with this and he said that it may be because the OSX partition header is bad rather than the harddrive header. He then asked if there was a recent update that may have something to do with this? Either way i have no idea. So my question is; If there was an update that i didnt get that perhaps caused this, am I able to install it through the windows partition?
    Thanks-

    Did your computer come with installer discs? Or, do you have a retail Snow Leopard DVD? If so, then:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • Install GoDaddy SSL Certificate to Windows Server 2012 - Access Anywhere

    I would like to activate Access Anywhere on my windows server 2012 essentials. I went through the guided steps and purchased a SSL certificate from Godaddy. Godaddy doesn't offer support regarding the correct installation process of their certificates
    using iis 8 (server 2012 essentials). I noticed that Access Anywhere requires a PFX certificate and Godaddy only provided a PKCS #7 and a cer. file. Please let me know if Godaddy's certificates are compatible with windows server 2012 essentials. Without Access
    Anywhere functioning on my server, the usefulness of the server greatly decreases. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks. 

    All you need is the standard, lowest level, single domain, no email, no bells, no whistles, no UCC.  Just a simple SSL cert.  Even SBS standard which adds email to the RWA feature, only requires that, thanks to the magic of the dev. team.

  • How to install SSL Certificates automatically in Client machine

    Hi All
           I have installed Certificates for SSL in Planning server machine for Planning Web services.While connneting to Server through excel-addin from client machine it is not connecting
     Error is bleow:
    "The underlying connection was closed : could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel" and then getting the following error
    "The PerformancePoint Server System is currently unavailable"
    I got it this is due to Certification not installed in client machine.
    So i tried to install certificate through IE web browser ..i typed webservices links ..i.e https://servername:443 in address box
    ..not admin console link.Because if i connect to Admin console then i connect to Planning server it is  not showing me the dialog box  " Security Alert "
    So typed direcly  webservices in address box.Then "Security Alert" dialog box opened ,In that i clicked "View Certificate" button and installed manually.Then this problem solved.
    But i want to check this is a way to install cerficate in the client machine or there is any other way to do it automatically...
    Please help me to solve this..
    Thanks
    Abdul

    Abdul,
    The problem seems to be that the certificate authority that created your certificate is no trusted by Windows.... That process of installing the root certificate in the clients machines should not be needed if the ceritifcate is obtained from the right ceritifcate authority...
    Where did you purchased your certificate from?

  • Unable to Install Root CA Certificate - Certificate cannot be verified up to a trusted certificate authority.

    Hi,
    I am trying to install CA root certificate on Windows 7, IE 9.
    Encounter error: "Untrusted Certificate".  "This certificate cannot be verified up to a trusted certificate authority."
    I have tried to install the certificate to Trusted Root Certificate Authorities->local computer and import was successful. BUT on IE->Internet Options->Certificate->Trusted Root Certificate Authorities, I am unable to find this root CA on
    the list.
    On mmc->Certificates->Trusted Root Certificate Authorities->certificates, I am able to view this root CA.
    I then restarted the IE and view the ssl site again but failed too, "Untrusted Certificate".
    Anyone, any idea ?
    Regards,
    Eye Gee

    Hi,
    If you install the certificate but then cannot see it please read the following KB article:
    You cannot view certificate information in Windows Internet Explorer 7 or in Certificate Manager after you successfully import a certificate on a Windows Vista-based computer(although it applies to Windows Vista)
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;932156
    This is also because of this: Microsoft Security Advisory: Update for minimum certificate key length
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2661254
    To get rid of the error, you can self-signed certificate for a secured website in Internet Explorer.
    To do this, follow these steps:
    1. In Explorer Options, add the URL to your trusted sites. Exit Explorer.
    2. In Windows Internet Explorer, click Continue to this website (not recommended).
     A red Address Bar and a certificate warning appear.
    3. Click the Certificate Error button to open the information window.
    4. Click View Certificates, and then click Install Certificate.
    5. On the warning message that appears, click Yes to install the certificate and place it in your trusted certificates authority.
    6. Exit Explorer then open the page again. Error should be gone.
    I also would like to suggest you refer to the link below to learn more about certificates:

  • How to install and use certificates on client?

    Hello everyone, and first of all sorry for my poor, italian-accented english.
    I have some questions about SSL and certificates. I'm developing a java desktop application, which should connect to a https server, authenticate with a previously downloaded certificate and then gain access. Some specs: I work on a Windows Xp Pro machine with Netbeans 6.1 and jdk 1.6.0_07.
    Now, I'm using HttpUnit libraries to connect the first time, login with basic authentication and download the certificate, but after i get it I'm not sure how to install the certificate (using java, it has to be an automated procedure) on the client machine and then how to use it to connect to the server. I've tried to use the code I've found here and after using it I can see the certificate inside Control Panel > Java > Securiy > Certificates > System, but I'm not sure I'm installing it in the correct way and/or in the correct path.
    Everytime I try to connect to the server I get back a HTTP 403 forbidden exception. Does someone know any tutorials/howtos/example codes to suggest to me? Or could tell me what's the right installation procedure using java? Any help would be very appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    After banging my head on my keyboard for a lot of hours, I've got it!
    I was trying to install a *.pfx certificate, and that was bad. I tried to convert it in *.p12 or *.cer but that workaround didn't work. Finally I've found a small code to use a *.pfx certificate without installing it and... it works! No more 403 errors now, I can get that damn page. :)
    Here is the class I've used (I've found it somewhere googling around but I've lost the link, sorry. Anyway, I've modified it a little)

  • How to install OSX 10.6 client in Mac Mini Server 10.7 Lion Server

    I am ordering a Mac Mini Server with Lion Server 10.7, with 256GB SSD and 750GB HD.  I want to use Snow Leopard (client/workstation) instead.  Previously I have already purchased retailed version of 10.5 clients and 10.6 client upgrade.  Please advise the best approach from the followings (or more suggestions from you guys...). 
    (A) The boot disk (likely to be the SSD) will be re-formatted and re-installed by "clean" installation of 10.6 client.  But I am not sure whether all hardware drivers for the new Mac Mini (2011) are available in the 10.6 client disk.  Also, it seems to me that installation disk of 10.7 server will not be provided.  So I shall not be able to re-install server version again if I want to change this Mac to a server sometimes afterwards.  Of course I would like to keep this server software for investment protection, no matter I use it or not.  If 10.6 client can be installed, I shall use bootcamp to install Windows 7 also.  So there will be 2 partitions to be usable aparently.
    (B) The factory-installed OSX 10.7 server is kept, and one more partition is created (with Disk Utilties).  Snow Leopard workstation 10.6 will be installed at this new partition.  If 10.6 client can be installed, I shall use bootcamp to install Windows 7 also.  So there will be 4 partitions, including 10.7 server, 10.6 client, 10.7 recovery drive and bootcamp for Windows 7.  Since I want to put all OS software at the SSD (faster boot-up and better performance), the drawback is that each partition is with less space.
    Do you guys have other ideas or suggestions?
    [Background]
    In fact I want to make use of its strongest computing power (amongst available Mac Mini computers in store), quad-core CPU & dual disks,  to run music applications (DAWs).  Operating systems are put at SSD, and data is put at traditional harddisk.  As some music applications (e.g. Calkwalk Dimension) only support 10.6 currently, I need to down-grade from Lion server to Snow Leopard workstation.  Also I think applications can run faster in a hardware with  workstation OS (rather than server version). Please correct me if this belief is wrong. 
    Thanks / Howard.

    If you completely wipe the original Mac mini boot drive you will wipe the Server.app software an dlose it. You should make a backup first, perhaps by saving the entire boot drive as a Disk Image file on to another drive.
    In terms of install 10.6, the 10.6 DVD will not boot on the new Mac mini even if you connect a DVD drive. You need to put the Mac mini in to FireWire Target Disk Mode and connect it to an older Mac that will allow booting from that DVD, then install on to the Mac mini (over FireWire), you then need to upgrade it using the 10.6.8 Combo Updater this will add the drivers needed for the new Mac mini.

  • Troubles with client certificates in Windows Phone 8.1 WebViews

    Hi,
    I'm having difficulties using a client certificate in Windows Phone 8.1 WebViews.
    My code works fine in my Windows 8.1 App but i get a WebErrorStatus=[CertificateIsInvalid] in WebView.NavigationCompleted in WP.
    I'm using this code to import my certificate :
    await CertificateEnrollmentManager.ImportPfxDataAsync(certificateBase64, certificatePassword, ExportOption.NotExportable, KeyProtectionLevel.NoConsent, InstallOptions.None, "MyClientCertificate");
    I have no problem using this cert in HttpClient with either Windows 8.1 or Windows Phone 8.1.
    I don't understand why it doesn't work with the WebView control only on Windows Phone.

    Tried it with no success.
    But I just found this : https://blogs.msdn.com/b/wsdevsol/archive/2014/07/31/programmatically-create-and-configure-a-client-certificate-for-use-in-your-windows-runtime-based-app.aspx?Redirected=true
    With the note at the bottom: 
    Note: For Windows Phone 8.1, you need to attach the Client Certificate programmatically. For Windows, once you install the Client Certificate to the app container
    store and do not attach the client certificate with the HttpClient request, the HttpClient class will automatically detect that there is a single certificate installed in the app container store and forward it to the server. However in the case of Windows
    Phone 8.1, there is no such “automatic” selection of the certificate and one MUST provide the certificate programmatically.
    Since there seems to be nothing to attach a custom HttpBaseProtocolFilter to a WebView, it doesn't seem possible atm.

  • Unable to install 64-bit Oracle ODBC Instant Client on Windows 2008 R2 machine.

    I am trying to upgrade the Oracle ODBC driver from the 32-bit version currently installed (ODBC Instant Client Release 10.1.0.5.0, April 2006) to a newer 64-bit version but have not been successful.  I have had success at uninstalling and reinstalling the existing 32-bit version package (release 10.1.0.5.0) however when I've tried to install the 64-bit ODBC Instant Client (Release 12.1, December 2012), I run the odbc_install.exe application inside the package.  it appears to run without issue/compliant, but then I do not see the 64-bit Oracle ODBC driver anywhere, either if I go via the traditional Administrator Tools --> ODBC Data Sources or if I go to the c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe route.  Further investigation into the ReadMe file (ODBC_IC_Readme_Win.html) reveals that you need the 3 DLLs oci.dll, oraociei11.dll and orannzsbb11.dll which the package does not come with. Where could I obtain the correct version of these DLLs or else where can I get an installation package which already contains them?

  • Installing OSX on a PRO running only on Windows XP

    This summer I got a MacPro and due to the needs at our institute I had to install Windows. Due to a formatting mistake I only installed XP and updated with bootcamp. Now I want to install OSX (I have legitimate discs) but cant get past the logo after boot up with disc inside. I have reformatted and reinstalled windows a few times but no change. Hope anyone here has some bright idea's.....

    1 Boot from the OS X install disc.
    2 From the Install menu, select 'Disk Utility'
    3 In Disk Utility, click on the drive icon, not the volume icon. The drive icon should have a name something like '500 GB ST500xxxx'; the volume icon should have whatever name you gave the WinXP volume.
    4 Select 'Partition' from the tabs on the right.
    5 Select 'One Partition' from the pull-down menu. Click on the 'Options' button, select GUID.
    6 Repartition your drive. Warning: _This will delete all data currently on the drive_.
    7 Select 'Install' from the main menu. You should be back in the installer and can install OS X normally from there.

  • How to install certificate in im client

    i can't find the procedure for installing a certificate in the client - i did the server part:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4412/6n6ikpsut?a=view
    but now i can't find how to do the client part - i'm just using the standard im client obtained from:
    https://localhost/im
    which does a jnlp activation.

    ok - woo hoo - tls encryption kicked in - so i found a parameter that i had not set that was mentioned in the reference section, but overlooked (by me?) in the procedure: iim_server.certnickname - i had wondered how it knew which cert to pull, so i had named the cert the same name as the host to compensate - and there was, after all, only one cert in the file. anyway that plus using the sun mozilla browser on the same host as the im server caused the lock to turn on in the im frame. unfortunately - when i used a mac to try and have a conversation - the mac lock did not turn on - the java version on the mac is:
    java version "1.5.0_07"
    Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-164)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_07-87, mixed mode, sharing)
    the version on the sun is: 1.5.0_09-b-3. i'll open a forum question about whether a mac is supported and then i'll try im with tls on a pc, then i'll use snoop to make sure the conversation is encrypted. i used the mac in all my testing yesterday - so i t could be that the sun mozilla browser may have been working all along - who knows?
