Hi,
I have used ssl to create a self-signed certificate (password protected) that last for very long years (this is because the opc server I am using auto-generates certs that are valid for one year only).
I have added the generated cert to the windows to the Trusted Root Certification Authorities, but I have to add that to the Opc server (or the Opc client side) to make this certificate to be used by Opc server. My Opc client is QuickOpc. (a sidenote here; this is just my understanding, for me to take this certificate to distribute to all PCs that I am going to install my Opc client on, it's better to include the self-signed cert as part of the Opc client solution (.Net based solution), Do you agree?)
But my main question is how to add this self-signed certificate that is password protected to the Opc server and/or to the Opc client solution?
Best regards.
