When using client authentication using ssl certificates, your visibroker
security example shows that the client certificates are of the form:
"-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n"
...
"-----END CERTIFICATE-----\n"
security example shows that the client certificates are of the form:
"-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n"
...
"-----END CERTIFICATE-----\n"
and client private keys are of the form
"-----BEGIN ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----\n"
....
"-----END ENCRYPTED PRIVATE KEY-----\n"
I am not sure what the correct name for this format is, but let me carry
on.
When I get a client certificate and private key, they are generally in
pkcs12 format, which is different to the above. Does the security
service provide a utility to convert the keys from pkcs12 format to the
above format? If not, what is available?
