1. You can also generate certificates with MS Certificate Authority. It' s
part of win NT\2000\2003 server installation.
2. Certificate generate with MS tools is usually associated with CSP. You
can also do this with CAPI call:
CertSetCertificateContextProperty(pCertContext,
CERT_KEY_PROV_INFO_PROP_ID,...).
With MS Certificate Authority you can install certificate also at local
machine store.
3. Try with CertGtCertificateContextProperty(pCertContext,
CERT_KEY_PROV_INFO_PROP_ID,...).

Miro

Subject: questions regarding certificates


HI all,
I have a basic question..
1.How do i create a certificate for a testing purposes..can i make use of
makecert util or keytool(java). Will both work?
2.Also, how do i associate the certificate i have created to a CSP? Will it
automatically associate itself with a CSP when i make use of makecert?When
i create my own certificate it will get stored in "My" store rit??
3. Also i want to know how can one programmatically find out the name of
the CSP and the container associated with a certificate ? WHat CAPI
function should i use.
Thanks,
Rashmi
