SunScreen 3.1 Installation Guide

To Create a Self-Generated Certificate on the Administration Station

  1. Open a terminal window and create the required SKIP directories by typing:


    # skiplocal -i
    
  2. Create the self-generated certificate on the Administration Station by typing:


    # skiplocal -k -f -V
    

    The local certificate ID appears. It is the Administration Station's 32-character certificate ID (MKID).

  3. Write down the certificate ID, which begins with `Ox.'

  4. Add SKIP to all the interfaces by typing:


    # skipif -a
    
  5. Reboot to complete the installation by typing:


    # sync; init 6
    

The Administration Station's certificate ID has been generated. You next move to the Screen to install the SunScreen software.
