Import certificates to system 'Secure Site CA'

843811Mar 18 2005
Is there a recommended process for importing a .CER certificate to 'Secure Site CA' for the system account?

I imported a certificate to my user 'Secure Site CA' and then copied the trusted.jssecacerts file from my user appdata security folder to the program directory (%JAVA_HOME%\lib\security) and renamed it to just jssecacerts. It now shows up under the System 'Secure Site CA' from the Java control panel. I'm not sure if this is correct or if it even works properly this way, any comments? A better way?

I use RemotelyAnywhere to do my remote administration and I've created a single CA cert that is used to sign the server certs of each computer for which I am responsible. I would like this one CA certificate installed (trusted) on each user's machine so they can connect to and use the remote control applet (on other machines) without having to approve the applet each time they connect. And I want to do this for the system account so it only has to be done once rather than for EACH user account on the system.
