Abstract
Method and system aspects for automated generation and distribution of certificates in a computer network of computer systems are described. These aspects include generating a request by a first computer system for a certificate from a second computer system, and responding to the request in the second computer system by automatically generating the certificate and distributing the certificate to the first computer system. Further, generating a request includes issuing a POST/CERTREQ request, and sending a self-signed certificate from the first computer system to the second computer system using HTTP. Automatically generating the certificate includes sending a sequence of certificates to the first computer system, the sequence of certificates including the newly generated certificate of the first computer system with a signature from the second computer system and a self-signed certificate from the second computer system.
