Installing BACS components on Microsoft and Linux operating systems 15

Be sure to record the information to later import the certificate on a Microsoft Windows operating
system.

3.

Complete any additional steps as prompted.

4.

Make a copy of server.crt, and then place the certificate file on the server where BACS is installed.
To use a different computer to connect to the server running BACS, copy the same certificate to that
computer.

For a Linux server, create the certificate with the .pem extension. It is unnecessary to use the openssl

command to convert from .crt to .pem because only the file extension needs to change.
Transfer the certificate
If the certificate is on a system that does not host BACS, transfer the hostname.pfx to the Microsoft

Windows server.
To transfer the certificate:

1.

Select Start→Run, enter mmc, and then click OK.

2.

From File menu, select the Add/Remove snap-in.

3.

Select Certificates, and then click Add.

4.

Select Computer Account.

5.

Click Next, Finish, and then OK.

6.

Expand Certificates (Local Computer).

7.

Expand Personal, and then right-click Certificates.

8.

Select All Tasks, and then click Import.

9.

Specify the certificate file location, and then select hostname.pfx.

10.

At the prompt for a password for the private key, enter the same password as the self-signed certificate
password.

11.

Follow any instructions, select defaults, and then select Continue.
The certificate shows as installed on the right side. The name is the CN selected during the certificate

generation.

12.

Right-click the certificate, and then select Properties.
A dialog box states Ensure that only Server Authentication is enabled as shown in

the above dialog box.

13.

Expand Trusted Root Certification Authorities.

14.

Expand Certificates.
Repeat the steps in this procedure to import any additional certificates as needed.

To import a self-signed certificate on a client, see "Configuring HTTPS on Microsoft operating systems (on

page

)."
