</OBJECT> (SSL), <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->you 
 must add the client's trusted public certificate (or the public certificate 
 of the client's certificate authority), and the corresponding private 
 key, to the <span style="font-style: italic;"><I>clientcerts </I></span>keystore 
 file. See <a href="Adding_a_Certificate.htm">Adding a Certificate</a> 
 for more information on adding certificates.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Private keys can only be imported as a special type of password-protected

 of the private key must be the same as that protecting the keystore.</p>

<p>1. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->From 
 the Security Menu, choose Client Certificates.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>2. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->Select 
 the client certificate to which you want to add the private key, and then 
 click the Set Private Key button.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>3. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->Select 
 the private key that you want to add to the client certificate, and then 
 click the Open button.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>4. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->Enter 
 the keystore password, and then click OK.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>5. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->Click 
 OK to close the dialog.</p>
