I am trying to renew a certificate using CertEnroll and CertLib COM libraries in PowerShell. Here is my code:
[CmdletBinding()]
param(
[parameter (mandatory=$true)]
[string]$ServerName
)
$credential = Get-Credential
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $ServerName -Credential $credential -ScriptBlock{
$location=[System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.StoreLocation]::CurrentUser
$store =New-Object -TypeName System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Store -ArgumentList $location
$store.Open(1)
$cert = $store.Certificates.Find([System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509FindType]::FindByIssuerName,"<CA-Name>",$false)[0]
#Write-Output $cert.IssuerName
$store.Close()
$request = New-Object -ComObject X509Enrollment.CX509CertificateRequestPkcs7
try{
$request.InitializeFromCertificate(0x2,$true,[System.Convert]::ToBase64String($cert.RawData),0x1,3 -band 1024)
$enroll = New-Object -ComObject X509Enrollment.CX509Enrollment
$enroll.InitializeFromRequest($request)
$message = $enroll.CreateRequest(1)
$certReq = New-Object -ComObject CertificateAuthority.Request
$val=$certReq.Submit(0x1 -bor 0,$message,[string]::Empty,"<CA-Server>\"+ $cert.Issuer.Split('=')[1])
if($val -eq 3)
{
Write-Host "Certificate request accepted"
}
$reqid=$certReq.GetRequestId()
#$reqid=[System.Convert]::ToInt32($id)
$objcertRequest = New-Object -ComObject CertificateAuthority.Request
$pending = $objcertRequest.RetrievePending($reqid,"<CA-Server>"+$cert.Issuer.Split('=')[1])
if($pending -eq 3)
{
$certificate = $objcertRequest.GetCertificate(0x1 -bor 0x100);
$objEnroll = New-Object -ComObject X509Enrollment.CX509Enrollment
$objEnroll.Initialize(1);
$objEnroll.InstallResponse(4,$certificate,1,$null);
Write-Host "Installed Successfully"
}
else
{
Write-Error 'error'
}
}
catch
{
Write-Output $_.Exception.Message
Write-Output $_.Exception.ItemName
}
}
I've given correct values for the CA server and the CA Name. I am able to renew the certificates on my local machine but I'm getting error when I try to do it for a certificate on another computer. This is the error I'm getting:
Exception calling "InitializeFromCertificate" with "5" argument (s): "CertEnroll::CX509CertificateRequestPkcs7::InitializeFromCertificate: The operation being requested was not performed because the user has not been authenticated. 0x800704dc (WIN32: 1244)"
Can anyone tell me why I'm getting an authentication error. I'm providing the correct credentials.
You provided credentials to authenticate on a remote host, however these credentials are not used to authenticate on CA server. You have either to:
