To use your own certificate authority (CA) to sign our certificates, follow these steps to create a signed digital certificate for PUT:
  1. Log on as root.
  2. Navigate to: /opt/teradata/TDput/puthttpd/conf/
  3. Type the command:

    ./CreateKeys -a [-t n]

    Where n is the number of days.

    If you omit 't' from this command, the default value is 3650.
    This generates the file: server.cert.req.csr
  4. Use this certificate signing request and your own CA to create a signed certificate.
  5. Name the file PUT.private.crt.
  6. Place PUT.private.crt in /opt/teradata/TDput/puthttpd/conf/ssl.crt.put/.
  7. Type the command:
    ./CreateKeys -c
  8. Restart PUT services:
    /etc/init.d/TDput restart
