You should import only client.p12 certificate in IE browser and
when IE asks you in which folder you want to put it select Personal Folder.


I hope it helps you.

Subject: Client Authentication



Dear All

I've been able to setup Tomcat 5.0.30 successfully on port 8443. I want to
use client authentication. Hence i've enabled clientAuth=true in
server.xml


Running on Mac OS X these were the commands to create a CA and sign a
certificate using this CA.

Creating a new CA:
1) perl CA.pl -newca

Certificate request using openssl:
1) perl CA.pl -newreq
2) perl CA.pl -sign
3) mv newreq.pem client_req.pem
4) mv newcert.pem client_cert.pem
5) openssl rsa < client_req.pem > client_key.pem
6) openssl pkcs12 -export -in client_cert.pem -inkey client_key.pem -out
   client.p12

For Tomcat using Java keytool to request certificate:
1) openssl x509 -in server_cert.pem -out server.x509
2) openssl pkcs12 -export -in server_cert.pem -inkey server_key.pem
-out server.p12
3) keytool -genkey -alias meAsClient -storepass changeit
4) keytool -certreq -alias measclient -file client.csr -storepass changeit
5) openssl x509 -req -CA demoCA/cacert.pem -CAkey
demoCA/private/cakey.pem -extensions v3_ca -in client.csr -inform DER
-out client_cert.x509 -CAcreateserial
6) keytool -import -alias butterflyCA -keystore /Syst.. ..urity/cacerts
-file ../CA/demoCA/cacert.pem
7) keytool -import -alias measclient -keystore clientstore -trustcacerts
-file client_cert.x509



Following these commands I dont get any errors. I then import the cacert.pem, the ROOT CA certificate and the client.p12 and client_cert.x509 to the browser I.E 6.0. But still there is a popup requesting for the clients identity and it asks me to select a certificate and no certificates are displayed.

How can I go about this?


All suggestion and ideas are welcome.



Regards & Thanks
