Hi...

I run WinXP SP2 ( and latest windows updates ).
When i try to generate a SSL key with stardogs rsa_keygen.bat i get the folowing error:

error: Can't create the key of the subject ('anything')

( on a XP SP1 computer it works just fine .. )

What is wrong ?

Okay ...

Is it possible to generate a key in another computer with EXACT same user name and "host" name, and then use that key ?

No.
Use search subj on this forum and also in knowledge base.
I hope you'll get enough info.

Well, actually it is possible. It is quite a bit tricky, though.

You need to make sure that for the certificate you create you can export the private key -- this option is disabled by default. If you create such a certificate, you can export it from one computer and import it on another and ioFTPD will work with it.

I have done it once, but it took me quite a bit of time to figure it all out -- in other words, try every other option first :D
