On a Windows system, certificates are registered with the operating system, usually in one of two locations: the Local Machine store, or the Current User store. (This store is also known as the "Personal" or "My" store.) The Local Machine store contains certificates that may be accessed by anyone on the local computer. Only administrators may add or modify certificates in this store. The Current User store contains certificates that may be accessed only by the currently signed on user. The current user has full access to the store and may add or modify certificates in the store. MOVEit Central accesses the Current User store when looking for certificates, and has the ability to install (or import) a certificate into this store.
To do so, first log on to the Central server using the Admin program. Once logged on, select Options | Cert Key Managers | SSL Client Certificates. Click the Add button to add a new Certificate. Browse to the certificate file and select it. Enter the password protecting the certificate when prompted. The certificate data will be sent to the Central server, where it will be added to the Current User certificate store of the user the Central server is currently running under.
