is Not Logged In, click OK and then click the Login button. Otherwise, just
click OK. (Logging in allows you to install your signing certificate on the smart
card. The smart card doesn't have to be logged in within Communicator for
you to use it with Netscape Signing Tool.)
Click OK again.
14.
After you have activated the smart card, use Communicator to visit the web site for
the certificate authority (CA) you want to use and request a signing certificate.
When you submit your information to the certificate authority, Communicator asks
you to select the card or database you wish to use to generate your private key. You
should select the name of your smart card.
Your system then generates a public-private key pair and submits your request to
the CA. When you receive the certificate, it is installed directly onto the card and
travels with that smart card. However, you will be unable to use the certificate
unless the smart card is inserted in the appropriate reader and you have entered its
password correctly.
