Certificate deployment using PLS-Toolbox in OfficeScan (OSCE)

To use the PLS-Toolbox in certificate deployment:

1. Download and install PLS-Toolbox.
   1. Restart the OfficeScan Plug-in service.

      

   2. Log on to the OfficeScan web console.
   3. Click Plug-ins.

      

   4. Download ToolBox and install it.

      

2. Prepare the certificate package.
   1. Generate the config.ini file with following content:

      [Attribute]
      ID = 704
      BinaryName_x86 = IpXfer.exe
      BinaryName_x64 = IpXfer_x64.exe
      Version = 12.0.0.1354
      ReleaseDate = 20140812
      PackageMode = 3

      [Functionality]
      CommandOption = -e OfcNTCer.dat -t toolbox
      TimeOutAfterExecute = 180

      Where:

      The Version is the File Version and the ReleaseDate is the Date Modified of the IpXfer.exe. IpXfer.exe and IpXfer_x64.exe should have the same File Version and ReleaseDate.

      

       

      For OfficeScan XG, CommandOption = -e OfcNTCer.dat -pwd <unload password> -t toolbox
   2. Access the PCCSRV\PCCNT\COMMON\ folder of the server machine.
   3. Copy the OfcNTCer.dat file.
   4. Go to the OSCE server. 
   5. Proceed to …Admin\utility\ipxfer and access ipxfer.exe and IpXfer_x64.exe files.
   6. Copy the ipxfer tool (32/64 bits).
   7. Compress the config.ini, ipxfer.exe, IpXfer_x64.exe, and OfcNTCer.dat files into a .zip file. The .zip file should contain these 4 files directly, without any subfolders.
3. Deploy server’s certificate globally to all clients.
   1. Go to ToolBox management page.

      

   2. Select the sub-domain and click Deploy.

      

   3. Browse the zip file and deploy it to the client side (i.e. Certificate.zip).

      

   4. Go to the ToolBox management console to check the deployment status.

      

   5. Verify that the file has been deployed on the client side. The original file will be renamed as a BAK file.
