In the EKM Users guide it is described how to generate self signed certificates. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?&uid=ssg1S4000504 You can use either keytool or ikeyman. Ikeyman has a GUI and can be started with: export CLASSPATH=IBMKeyManagementServer.jar java -cp IBMKeyManagementServer.jar com.ibm.gsk.ikeyman.Ikeyman Don't forget to enable X11 forwarding (ssh -X). > How do I start EKM? We are using a small shell script to start EKM: #!/bin/sh # # Start Enterprise Key Manager (EKM) # export CLASSPATH=IBMKeyManagementServer.jar pid=$(ps -ef | grep -i com.ibm.keymanager.EKMServer | \ grep -v grep | head -1 | awk '{print $2}') if [ "$pid" != "" ]; then echo "EKM already running with pid $pid" else echo $pid java -cp IBMKeyManagementServer.jar \ com.ibm.keymanager.EKMLaunch KeyManagerConfig.properties fi > The manual (GA76-0418 IBM Encryption Key Manager Component for the Java > Platform - Introduction, PLANNING, AND USERS'S GUIDE) shows all kinds of > examples for WINDOWS, AIX, UNIX, z/OS etc, but not much for LINUX under VM. Right, but somewhere between all the information for z/OS, AIX, etc, you can find the Linux information :-) Michael ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
