Steps to download the CA certificates from Windows CA server
Use the following steps to download the Certificate Authority certificates from a Windows 2003
CA Server using Mozilla browser 1.6.0.01.00:
1. You must install Mozilla browser on your HP-UX system.
2. Log in your HP CIFS Server machine as root.
3. Use the following command to setup your DISPLAY environment variable on your HP CIFS
Server machine:
export DISPLAY = your_machine_IP:0.0
4. Run the following command to start Mozilla browser:
/opt/mozilla/bin/mozilla &
5. Use Mozilla browser to connect to your Windows CA Server.
The following shows an example of using a link to connect to your Windows CA Server:
http://ADS CA Server name/Certsrv
6. Provide administrator and password information after you connect to your CA Server.
7. Click on the “Download a CA Certificate, Certificate Chain, or CRL” link.
8. Check “Base 64” in the Encoding method field.
9. Click on the “Download CA Certificate” link.
10. Check the “Trust this CA to identify web sites”, “Trust this CA to
identify email user”, and “Trust this CA to identify software
developers” check boxes in the Downloading Certificate window screen. Then click
the OK button.
11. Click the Open button when the file download window appears.
12. Check the “Install Certificate” button.
13. Click Next.
14. Use “Automatically select the certificate store based on the type of
certificate”. Then click the Next button.
15. Click the Finish button.
16. The CA certificates are downloaded to the following two files on your HP CIFS Server system:
/.mozilla/default/*.slt/cert8.db
/.mozilla/default/*.slt/key3.db
17. You can simply copy certificates to the file location you want. The default location of the
certificate database files is /etc/opt/ldapux. For example, the following commands copy
certificates from the /.mozilla/default/*.slt directory to the /etc/opt/samba
directory:
cd /.mozilla/default/*.slt
cp cert8.db /etc/opt/samba/cert8.db
cp key3.db /etc/opt/samba/key3.db
18. Run the following command to verify whether the certificates wok with a Windows ADS:
ldapsearch -h ADS_server_name -Z -P /etc/opt/samba/cert8.db -s base \
-b "" “(objectclass=*)”
The results from the command display if the certificates work.
