How to generate a PKCS#10 request
 
Hello

How do I generate a PKCS#10 request?

I've been reading about req but don't quite understand it. We have a server with a certificate and its about ready to run out. I've been told to put in a new request. On the request screen it says all requests must be in PKCS#10 format.

Thanks for any help.

PKCS#10 is the default format for CSRs AFAIK.

The info you posted was perfect. Thanks. Apparently the command I needed was openssl. DUH!! I kept ignoring google findings of openssl looking for PKCS#10.

I usually follow this document geared towards iis users.It covers how to generate a certificate request, so You should be able to pick what You need.
