I have searched the msdn online and it is written that there is a
makecert.exe "-pe" option allowing the private key export...
I don't have this option in my makecert I even installed the latest Platform
SDK from our MSDN subscription (Nov 2001 - DVD May 2002) but still no -pe
option...
Anyone can help me?
Thanks
Eric
