New Version of KyrTool released

Daniel Nashed  3 April 2015 06:38:12
There is a newer version of the key ring tool that has been released on fix-central.

Here is the list of fixes for the newer version.
You should also update your client and server to the latest available IF because there are also fixes in the back-end for some issues parsing certificates.

By the way ... I really like the command line kyrtool. A couple of days ago a customer asked me for some maintenance of their existing key ring files.
Their CA expired and we had to remove the root CA from over 150 key-ring files.
Using a shell script in combination with the kyrtool allowed me to export the private key and certificates, use "sed" to modify the file, create a new key-ring file, re-import and verify the key-ring file.
We even dumped information about the keys, certs etc and validation of the key-ring files into a CSV file to have an overview :-)

Using the "show" command leeds to a crash of the new kyrtool (linux 64 or windows 32). Both systems were not patched to the latest IF.

I didn't test it with a fully patched system. The old version worked fine.

Update:

"show keys" works, "show certs" leads to panic

New Key tool v1.1 works for me with "show certs".

I see no problem here. Tested with Notes Client FP3 with current IF installed

Not sure which exact version you are on. And I have no unpatched system for testing.

Can you test with a patched version? Are you getting a NSD? Can you send it by mail?

Hi, do you known a new location to download this tool?

IBM website is not available yet.

Thank you.

@Eric, the kyrtool is part of the Domino 10 and higher servers

I didn't find a separate download on FlexNet for the kyrtool.

Hi Daniel,

Any idea how can generate CSR cert request for SHA2 on Domino 9.0.1? as I believe this tool is not a part in this release and all the download links for this tool are no more working.

Hi Vaibhav,

the kyrtool is now part of the server install since Domino 10.

And you create keys with openssl for example.

I posted some info on my blog and we have a script in our Docker project if you are a Linux guy.

There are many ways to create a private/public key and create a CSR.

It also depends on the CA you are using.

The only cert database isn't working any more but it's on the list for the next version to have something easier ..

My option currently is openssl.. if you need more details how it works.
