Try to use certificate with browser. That very browser, you've used to fill web form on CA web site - from same machine, from same user account. If it does work, than you DO have private key. It is hidden somewhere in the certificate storage of your browser. You just have to export key pair (certificate + private key) from this storage in the PKCS#12 container and import this container into java application (may be using OpenSSL pkcs12 command to separate certificate from private key). How to export key pair from storage - depends on your browser. With IE do this via Microsoft Management Console. With Mozilla or FireFox - via button on appropriate tab of Edit/Preferences dialog. I don't expect that CA support staff can help you with this problem. As far as my experience goes with CA, ISP, domain registrars and such services, they typically have low-qualified personnel on support desk, teached only to answer questions from absolutely ignorant users about very typical setup. Java application is not typical setup in their opinion, and users (not mention developers) of such things are on their own. Typically even if you know exactly what you wish, and how it can be done, it is very hard to explain this to support personnel. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
