Hi,

Is it possible with OpenCA (as it is with Microsoft certsrv) to certify an existing key pair from the browser certificate store or from a smart card (so without generating a new key pair)?

OpenCA will refuse to accept the same public key in an incoming certificate request, but it is possible to "renew" a certificate. In this case, OpenCA generates a new certificate based on the existing public key with the old certificate request data. You should be able to pick up this renewed certificate via "get requested certificate" and install it in the browser. It is also possible to download the certificate manually and import it wherever you like, including a SmartCard.

Hope this answers your question.

cheers

Martin
