hi
I have created a keystore (.kdb) extension using gsk8 (or rather runmqakm). Now I just found out that my applications use JKS. I tried to search around and found some information on gsk6 and that it supports the JKS format. However now, gsk8 doesn't support JKS. Only PKCS12 and p12 ( there is also cms/kdb).
How can I convert by kdb keystore to JKS format?
thanks |

Have you tried using runmqckm for the conversion?
If you need to stay FIPS compliant, convert to PKCS12 and then from PKCS12 to JKS using a FIPS compliant tool. (Like keytool if your implementation of Java JSSE is FIPS compliant.) Or use the PKCS12 repository directly in Java...

Thanks for replying. I have not tried runmqckm before. but yes, you are right, it does support jks. I tried just now and a jks file was created. So i just pass this jks file to them to input to their java program and it should work right?
If that's the case, I really should use runmqckm instead of runmqakm. Actually what is the real difference between these 2 commands?
thanks again. |
