hello no problem - thank you.
there are two ways how to solve my question. 1. keygenflags in ieCSR.vbs. by using the value 67108866 the private key is marked as non exportable and a dialogue letting user to choose the level of private key protection is displayed. by using the value 67108864 the private key is also marked as non exportable and the dialogue letting user to choose the level of private key protection is not displayed. the level is set to - no protection at all. so i obviously am setting/unsetting some of theese flags: 0x00000001 CRYPT_EXPORTABLE 0x00000002 CRYPT_USER_PROTECTED does anybody know what exactly means flag 0x00000002 CRYPT_USER_PROTECTED and how the values are composed (67108866 or 67108864). does anybody know if there is a flag to set password on private key ? 2. there should be better way to solve my question - to use openssl extfile on CA and fill in extension for non exportable certs. does anybody know how such and extension looks like and how to eventually format it for openca openssl extfile ? is that method usable for private keys generated on clients ? thank you for any hint. martin lizner www.anect.com czech rep.
