Running the Client

To run the client using the certificate, copy the certificate files to your client machine, laptop, or device, and add client-side certificate related information to the user profile.

1. Copy the certificate files rsa_root.crt and id_client.pem to your client machine, laptop, or device. These files were created in the Generating Client-side Certificates step. This example shows the Win32 client.
   Note: Client-side certificates are not supported in UltraLiteJ (BlackBerry devices).
2. On the client machine, laptop, or device, access the New Profile dialog.
3. Include the client-side certificate information in the profile, including:
   
   • MobiLink Port – this example shows 443.
   • ML Protocol – this example uses HTTPS (this is equivalent to the MobiLink Stream Type).
   • Stream Parameter – this example uses the .NET Win32TestClient:

     “url_suffix=/ias_relay_server/client/rs_client.dll/[SUP_FARM_ID];tls_type=RSA;trusted_certificates=rsa_root.crt;identity=id_client.pem;identity_password=pwd;”

   For this example, you would also copy the rsa_root.crt and id_client.pem files into ...\Win32TestClient\bin\Debug.

   
4. If you encounter an error, take action based on the error reported. See Resolving Client-Side Certificate Errors.

• Configuring a Profile from a Generated Project
  In a development or test environment, you can set up the client-side certificate by configuring the profile from the generated Windows Mobile project in Visual Studio Edition, instead of from the client machine, laptop, or device.
