Dear Rob,
thanks a lot for your response. I had a look at the example and it seems it describes the use of a self-signed certificate (couldn't figure out where a third party issues or verifies the certificate used for signing). This already works in standard OM(2/3). What I need are instructions on how to use an existing (trusted and verified class 2 server-)certificate for code signing. It seems our OM/build.xml setup is correct (incl. the keystore) as we get the following error message:

"This jar contains entries whose signer certificate's ExtendedKeyUsage extension doesn't allow code signing."

Doing some research, this points to a limitation of the (server-)certificate, which might not be used for code signing. It seems some server certificates can do the signing and some not. Confusing!!!

Cheers,
Rene'

Hi,
not sure, but think this is rather an issue of the certificate itself
than the settings (in OM). Keep you guys posted ... Rene'

I guess you need a keystore with a private key and a corresponding
certificate. I have some experience in this, even if not om specific.

Ask if you never setup a keystore for software signing.

In the meanwhile, some instructions from another project i work into (in italian only atm, sorry):
