Hi , I am making a CA site for my college project purpose.I learned that different browsers use different methods to generate CSR.Making CSR in IE was easy.For vista systems I used CertEnroll.dll methods and for non-vista IE i used xenroll.dll.I generated CSR in javascript successfully using that. it is in PKCS10.
I want to make my project compatible for mozilla and opera too i want to do the same for mozilla too but i guess mozilla method doesnt generate PKCS10 format Then i came across generateCRMF and keygen tags..keygen is not recommended i guess. how to sign the CRMF request key i get in openssl ? if i am using keygen tag, i think it gives SPKAC format..can we sign SPKAC using openssl ? i am able to generate CRMF and SPKAC..but doesnt know how to sign those in openssl.please help me in regard with this.. what i did was like this..i copy pasted the CRMF string i received into a text file and issued openssl verify command..it gave encoding error.. then i copy pasted the SPKAC string generated by keygen tag and tried to verify the same by openssl verify command..it also gives me encoding error.. is ther any problem with my copy-pasting the encoded string..can we copy paste the generate string like tat ?.. should i follow some other way ? thanks a lot.. :)
