3 Page 3 1 LuxTrust SSL certificate ordering The ordering process is divided into two major steps : The electronic request starts with the generation of new key pair to provide LuxTrust with. (see below part 1.1) The postal request to be completed with the same pieces of information than during the electronic order. As soon as LuxTrust will get both your requests, and once the payment achieved, they will provide you with a brand new certificate you will need to activate following the second chapter of this manual. 1.1 Generating a new key pair!! From this step, all operations must be performed on a single workstation with an active encryption module!! Furthermore, to be ready to solve any problem you might be facing during this process, we strongly advice you to backup your keystore (.ks file) before going on with this manual. Note : Should you aim at ordering a certificate for the very first time, please note that a well working e-file station means you have : Java installed (minimum version = 1.6_14). The downloading of Jar files must be authorized Please do not hesitate to call us should you have a doubt related to this subject.

4 Page 4 Connect to with your administrator access (adminxxx). Follow the Certificate activation link Click on 2 Generate to generate new PKCS10 encryption keys in order to let you order a new LuxTrust certificate.

5 Page 5 Enter your usual keystore password and fill the information about your entity which will be reported in your certificate. You must enter your usual keystore password twice. The latter has been defined during the very first certificate request to LuxTrust and must be know by all e-file users linked to your entity The keystore and the password are closely related. The loss of either would prevent you to send your documents. If the computer is well configured, then the keystore path must already be set up correctly meaning it already refers the keystore used by your encryption module. Important: Java must have write permissions on the folder Note : If you aim at ordering a certificate for the very first time, that means you do not have any keystore yet. In other words, you just need to define a brand new password you will have to provide all the e-file users with since they will need to use it before every sending. Furthermore, the keystore path field being empty, just define any name for the keystore using the Browse button.

6 Page 6 Important note : We invite you to fill in both the Name and the Entity fields with the complete name of your company. Click the Browse button in order to name the certificaterequest.txt file which will contain a copy of the generated keys. ** Now, LuxTrust only accept certificaterequest with the extension.csr. That s why you have to rename (from.txt to.csr) your certificaterequest after that this latter has been generated ** Click the Generate button This one contains the key which will be needed on the LuxTrust website during the next step. This file is also named P10 or CSR file. We invite you to store both the keystore and the certificaterequest files in a subdirectory named e-file. You can use your directory "My Documents", to be sure you have write permissions. The folder tree could be for example : C:\Documents And Settings\My User\e-file\e-file.ks Close the confirmation message. Important : Once you get this message, please verify if the last modification date has been updated. If it s not the case, it s highly probable that Java has not write permissions on your keystore. We recommend you to make a copy of these two files (keystore and certificate request) on a server, a share drive, or anywhere they can be surely kept. If the keystore.ks or his password is lost, your order will fail and you will have to pay for another certificate.
