RE: Generating digital certificates?

["Fu Wang, Thio" <fuwang () crimsonlogic com>]

Hi,

You can set-up your own CA using OpenSSL or if you have Win2kServer, you
can set-up your own CA and generate your own certs.

If you do not want the hassle, you can get a free personal cert from
Thawte.

Subject: Generating digital certificates?


I'm looking for recommendations on how to generate my own PCKS12 and PFX
format digital certicates?  Do utilities exist for MS Win2K/XP to do
this?

Since I do not run my own certificate authority, is there a public
resource where I can submit my digital certificates to get them assigned
some level of trust?

Thanks!

Mark
