To Request a Certificate

Steps

1. Type the following URL for starting the administration server in your browser:

   http://hostname.domain-name:administration_port

   A window prompting you for a user name and password appears.

2. Type the administration user name and password you specified during the Web Server or Application Server installation.

   The Administration Server page appears.

3. Create a separate Web Server or Application Server instance.

   For more information on installing multiple instances of the server, see the product documentation at http://docs.sun.com/.

4. Create a trust database to store the public and private keys, referred as the key-pair file.

   The key-pair file is used for SSL encryption.

   For information on creating a trust database, see the Web Server or Application Server product documentation at http://docs.sun.com/.

5. Request a certificate from the Certificate Authority.
