I've got a trio of Windows servers (data1, data2 and datawitness) that aren't part of any domain and don't use AD. I'm trying to set up mirroring based on the instructions at http://alan328.com/SQL2005_Database_Mirroring_Tutorial.aspx. I've had success right up until the final set of instructions where I tell data1 to use datawitness as ...
Ola, I need to develop a website (in C#, asp.net 3.5) that will require client certificates. I'd like to debug this, using Visual Studio. I have setup IIS to use a self-signed certificate using the excellent tool SelfSSL I have also setup the default site to require SSL and to require client certificates.

I'm trying to setup Hudson in an environment where all the users use certificates. I looked around the archives here, on nabble, and on google, but if this is documented somewhere, i think I'm missing it. I'm sure part of the answer to this will be related to Hudson, and some will be specific to my servlet container. Under Security, I...
I'm targeting these two certificates. But I don't really know that how they affect my CV, and, of course, my salary. Are they truly valuable? Do they make differences in your work and your position before and after you get it? ...
I'm trying to write a PHP script using cURL that can authorize a user through a page that uses an SSL certificate, in addition to username and password, and I can't seem to get past the SSL cert stage. In this case, curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_VERIFYPEER, 0) unfortunately isn't an option. The certificate is a required part of authenti...
I have an app with an embedded webserver. This webserver can now do SSL via the OpenSSL package :) Now to the cert issue. This app is sold, which I say because it's not just sitting on a server I own -- it gets installed on thousands of computers. I want my customers to be safe so I want them to use SSL as painlessly as possible. Ri...

I want to create certificates programmatically in C#.net which are signed by a CA. I was able to create a self signed certificate with CertCreateSelfSignCertificate as described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa376039(VS.85).aspx http://stackoverflow.com/questions/187588/self-signed-certificate-in-windows-without-makecert...

The overall goal here is to have jetty be configured with a client certificate to be able to call a secure SOAP web service. Does anyone know how to configure Jetty to accept a client certificate (*.cer) ? Update: I did not find an easy way to implement a solution to my problem/question, but the sole answer here technically is correct!...
Please help me understand how the process goes. I understand that web browsers contain root certificates for certificate authorities (CAs) like verisign, Entrust, Comodo .. etc, but what exactly happens when a user accesses a secure page? Does the web browser send a request to the server of the CA to verify the ceriticate or it just uses...
Hi folks, I am developing a Windows Azure Demo Site which uses HTTPS instead of HTTP. So I configured my Azure project to use one self-signed certificate for local development and another (not self-signed) certificate for publishing it into the cloud, just like this description says. However, whenever I publish my site to the Azure Por...
I've seen a couple questions about how to convert a PFX to a cert file, but I need to go the other way. I have two files: bob_cert.cert bob_key.pem I'd like to convert them to a single .pfx file. Is there a tool that does this? ...
Motorola phones do not have Verisign/Thawte root certificates for code signing. They only embed Java UTI certificate, that requires you to pay to sign your application for every phone model you want to sign the app for (and this, every time you want a new version of the app). I've created a simple web page pointing to a certificate (DER...
I made the installer for certificates but it couldn't execute because it was returning error number 26352. I discovered it is because I am installing same certificate twice but on different store locations (current user and local machine). ...

The title says it all really. Can I make an internally generated certificate/key last longer than 12 months? ...
I understand that normally an SSL (or more precisely X.509) certificate is supposed to be signed by some certifying authority to assure that it is genuine. In some cases no such signature exists, e.g. if you generate a cert for testing purposes, or if you are the certifying authority (root certificate). In these cases, self-signed certi...
Hi, We are developing an e-Banking web application for a small bank (up to 20000 clients/users). We have to implement digital signatures with X509 certificates (issued by CA on USB tokens) for signing payment information. We tried using CAPICOM but it seems that it is not working well with Windows Vista (have not tried it with Win 7). T...
I have a desktop product which uses an embedded webserver which will use self-signed certs. Is there something that I can put in a web page that would detect that they haven't added the root CA to their trusted list, and display a link or DIV or something directing them how to do it? I'm thinking maybe a DIV that has instructions on ...
