Hi all,
This is first post in this series. All the post related to this series can be found in Introduction Post.
This post will focus on creating the files which are required.
We require to create the certificate , Key and Revocation List which will be used in next post.
Create a Security Certificate.
- Certificate. (.pfx)
- Certificate Key. (.pvk)
- Certification Revocation List. (.crl)
Pre-Requisites -
1. MMC.exe.
2. makecert.exe utility (installed with Microsoft Visual Studio).
To Store all the files which are required i will create a folder in my D Drive called Test Certificate.
Steps -
1. Open Visual Studio Command Prompt as administrator.
2. At the command prompt, locate the temporary directory.
Commands to locate -
Cd D:\Test Certificate
D:\
CREATE CERTIFICATE AND CERTIFICATE KEY -
3. Type Following Command -
makecert -n "CN=NAV2013R2" -r -sv NAV2013R2.pvk NAV2013R2.cer
4. When you are prompted, enter a password. You need this password to create the service certificate.
5. I am using Password as testing.
6. You will find certificate file and private key are saved in your folder.
CREATE CERTIFICATE REVOCATION LIST -
7. we now create a certificate revocation list for the root certification authority. A certificate revocation list is required because WCF applications check the revocation list when validating certificates.
8. Type Following Command to Create a revocation List (in same window of Visual Studio)-
makecert -crl -n "CN=NAV2013R2" -r -sv NAV2013R2.pvk NAV2013R2.crl
9. Enter same Password when prompted (in my case password is testing).
10. If you check your folder now you will have all the necessary files that are required.
In Next Post we will see how to install these certificates.
