Hello all,
I need an extra pair of eyes concerning the VMware vCenter 5.5 SSL
Certificates request for Single Sign-On.
The problem I have is with the creation of the SSO certificate for the Single Sign-On Service.
The command to generate the certificate is simple:
Openssl req –new –nodes –out c:\certs\sso\rui.csr–keyout c:\certs\sso\rui-orig.key –config
c:\certs\sso\sso.cfg
Where are these files coming from?:
\sso\sso.cfg : copy \openssl\bin\openssl.cfg to sso.cfg
\sso\rui.csr : I have done a search on the vCenter Server but am not able to find this file!
\sso\rui.csr : unable to find this file.
\sso\rui-orig.key : unable to find this file.
It is very clear for the Inventory Service no problem as these files can be found:
\inv\inv.cfg : copy \openssl\bin\openssl.cfg to inv.cfg
\inv\rui.csr : this file is located at – c:\users\all users\vmware\infrastructure\inventory service\ssl\rui.crt which will be copied to c:\certs\inv\rui.crt
\inv\rui.key : this file is located at – c:\users\all users\vmware\infrastructure\inventory service\ssl\rui.key which will be copied to c:\certs\inv\rui-orig.key
To generate the certificate request I run the following command:
Openssl req –new –nodes –out c:\certs\sso\rui.csr–keyout c:\certs\inv\rui-orig.key –config c:\certs\inv\inv.cfg
Convert the key to the proper RSA format:
Openssl rsa –in c:\certs\inv\rui-orig.key –out c:\certs\inv\rui.key
So where can i find the RUI.* files for the Single Sign-On Service?
Thanks in advance,
Jim
