Dear members,
out customer sent a pkcs#7 certification request to his CA containing the DN
[ req_distinguished_name ]
C=DE
O=ITSG TrustCenter fuer Arbeitgeber
0.OU=Braukmann Personalmanagement GmbH
1.OU=BN13538740
CN=Andrea Degler-Scheel
After processing the request the CA told him the DN was
C=DE
O=ITSG TrustCenter fuer Arbeitgeber
OU={T.61/Latin-1}Braukmann Personalmanagement GmbH
OU=BN13538740
CN=Andrea Degler-Scheel
See the difference in OU.1? {T.61/Latin-1}
Can someone explain me what this string is for? I know it deals with
character sets.
The CA rejects the request as it contains unpermitted chars ({}).
Our customer did sent 3 requests now of which none was processed without the
problem occuring. So i have to prove now that the string was not in the file
when it was sent to the CA and was included later when processed by
the CA.
I created a self-signed certificate on the request which does not
contain the string. I also checked the decoded request-file the customer
did sent. The string is not in there.
I sent the decoded request to the CA. The reply was, it couldn't be their
problem as they correctly process more than 10000 requests a month. I should
ask my software vendor. I do so now:)
Does someone know a simple reason why that string is put in the DN while
proessing a certification-request?
Just to let google know about that CA: ITSG Trustcenter.
thx in advance,
Tom Horstmann
