First, start the HTTP Administration server on your i.
1. Start Operations Navigator
2. Open Network > Servers > TCPIP
3. Select "HTTP Administration" (It's at or near the bottom of the list)
4. Click the Start button

Once the server has started,
Open Internet Explorer and enter http://your.i5.ip.address:2001/
Login to the i5/OS Tasks manager
Click on Digital Certificate Manager
Select a Certificate Store, click Continue and enter the store password
Expand the Fast Path menu on the left
Click on Work with CA Certificates
Check if your CA is listed and enabled. I believe yours is from RSA?
If not listed, click on Import at the bottom to add
Enable the CA then Validate

Are you sure 3.101.208.98 is your iSeries IP Address?

 

Whatis23   4040 pts.  |   Oct 14 2009  4:36PM GMT

Verify your IP, enter WRKTCPSTS *IFC
If 3.101.208.98 is your iSeries IP Address (your sample), check if the QHTTPSVR subsystem and appropriate ADMIN jobs are active. If not, start as noted above.

Thanks for your reply. the ip address which i mentioned here is different from the actual one. one more question. do we need any license to be installed for this? if yes please let me know which one.

thanks

I believe it is part of the OS.
Type GO LICPGM, option 10 to view. You should see this:

5722SS1 Digital Certificate Manager

sorry for bothering you one more time.

Started http server.

Once the server has started,
Opened Internet Explorer and entered <a href="http://your.i5.ip.address:2001/" title="http://your.i5.ip.address:2001/" target="_blank">http://your.i5.ip.address:2001/</a>
Logged in to the i5/OS Tasks manager
Clicked on Digital Certificate Manager

Question on this step:
—- Select a Certificate Store, click Continue and enter the store password –

Certificate type: Server or client
Example certificate store file name: /MYDIRECTORY/MYFILE.KDB
Certificate store path and filename: /FACT/abc.cer
Certificate store password: password

copied the cerficate into IFS and gave the path in certificate storepath and filename.
But i get the following error “Invalid WEBDB data is encountered”

Could you please suggest?

Try this:
At “Select a Certificate Store ” select the default *SYSTEM
Click Continue
enter store password, continue
Expand Fast Path
Select “Work with server and client certificates”
You will see all current certificates on your iSeries
Click in Import
At import file, enter the IFS path name to the .CRT you submitted to the CA(ex: RSA or DigiCert). I believe you should have received 3 .CRTs. One will be TrustedRoot.CRT, Two will have the provider’s name.CRT, Three is the one you want to import, the name submitted for the cert.
