RE: Cert Renewal issue + CAcert.org

Use the same tool from the JDK, keytool.exe. Your response should be nothing more than a certificate, the private key that is associated to that certificate had an alias , which you to specify during the import process. Sent from my Windows Phone

Thanks Eduardo for your nice and very very effective email. But, I am having
problem with this number 4. What I need to do here actually? Do i need to
install this? Or.. do I need to "replace ( just rename the old one with the
new one) it" and do some configuration in tomcat ?

What do you say?

Java has tools to create the key pairs and the CSR; you are not required to do 
this with OpenSSL. I provided some links below that have some commands.

https://www.digicert.com/easy-csr/keytool.htm
http://nl.globalsign.com/en/support/ssl+certificates/java/java+based+webserver/keytool+commands/

In the end the process is similar to:

1. Create keystore and create new CSR within it.
2. Send CSR
3. Get back the response
4. import response into the keystore

As for Apache/Tomcat, that I have no direct experience doing, but it should be 
no more than adding a module and making a few config tweaks.

Thanks,

-Eduardo

Subject: Cert Renewal issue + CAcert.org

I am learning various sites and blogs to make it clear, but, it's yet unclear 
to me! I think, you may help me if you want and that will be a big favor for 
me.  

What I am trying to do is: I am trying to "renew cert" of one server which was 
certified by CAcert.org. What I am trying to follow is:


1. Generate Private key: with openssl genrsa -des3 -out myserv.key 2048
2. Remove passphrase from key:
3. Generate CSR: with openssl req -new -key myserv.key -out myserv.csr
4. Submit this csr into 3rd party
5. get the certificate and SAVE IT AS MYSERV.CRT ( am I correct here? )
6. Concatenation CRT+PRIVATE KEY and SAVE THE CONCATENATION AS PEM FORMAT
7. RE-ENCODE PEM INTO PKCS12
8. Create JKS
9. Now what? how can I install JKS for tomcat and apache? what do you suggest 
me to do? any link? 


Can you please help me regarding this?
