Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to import a private key to my
keystore with the keytool command.
The fact is that I need in a client applet to get the private key of the
user to initialize a SSL connexion.
After some investigations, I found out that there are no API to get
certificates and private key from Netscape certificate database. So my
idea is to export certificates and public key from Netscape certificate
database to import them to Sun keystore.

Thanks for your help and any suggestions.

Sabine.
