Group, I have a Cisco ACS *APPLIANCE*. I'm trying to get peap up and
running. All the DOCS I see are geared towards the CISCO ACS Software.

I am using documentation found at:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/...17aa.shtml#t25

I am under the section "System Configuration -> ACS Certificate
Setup".
I've uploaded the cert to an FTP server so I can download it. The
screen I have looks like this:

Under System Config on ACS:

Certificate File
MYCERTNAME.cer

Private Key File
Private Key Password:

Submit Cancel

The documentation doesn't mention anything about a private key or
password, BUT when I hit submit, it won't let me past this screen
without filling in the info. I don't know where to get the private
file or the key.

Any help?

Thanks

Bill

The private key is the one that you generated when you created the
certificate request. The screen you are on is for installing a certificate
for the server, which you have two options. Create a self-signed
certificate, or create a certificate request that you then submit to a
certificate authority that then issues a certificate. To install this
certificate, you need the original request (the private key file), and the
certificate from the certificate authority.

The ACS Appliance runs the same software as the SOFTWARE.
