Exporting or importing private/public keys

To create the em.keystore file and export or import a private/public key:

• Run the keytool utility with the following parameters:

  keytool -genkey -alias alias_for_the_entry -keystore keystore_file_path -storepass keystore_password -keypass keystore_password -dname distinquished_name

EXAMPLE: keytool -genkey -alias em -keystore em.keystore -storepass empass -keypass empass -dname "C=IS, ST=Texas, L=Houston, O=bmc, OU=ESM, CN=em/Email=em@bmc.com"

NOTE: The passwords for storepass and keypass must be identical because JacORB only handles one password.
