HP UX Security Products and Features Software manual Generating the Credential File, Appendix B

	Generating the Credential File
B	Generating the Credential File

Every CSP module requires a credential file that which must be generated using a secure software program, called signdll, before the CSP can be accessed by applications using the CDSA framework. signdll is not distributed to customers, but is retained by HP “in-house.”

However, if an HP customer wishes to produce and market an add-in CSP module for the HP CDSA product, HP will allow that customer to use the signing tool at an HP facility to generate an appropriate credential file, provided they meet the criteria stipulated in “HP Signing Policy for CSP Add-In Vendors for CDSA Version 1.2.”
