' Note: Requires Chilkat v9.5.0.65 or greater.

' This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.PrivateKey")
set privKey = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.PrivateKey")

' Load the private key from a file.
' (Chilkat provides the ability to load private keys from many different
' formats and sources..)

    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( privKey.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"

' Create the CSR object and set properties.
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Csr")
set csr = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Csr")

' Specify the Common Name.  This is the only required property.
' For SSL/TLS certificates, this would be the domain name. 
' For email certificates this would be the email address. 
csr.CommonName = "mysubdomain.mydomain.com"

' Country Name (2 letter code)
csr.Country = "GB"

' Save the CSR..

' Copy-and-paste the PEM into the online CSR Decoding / CSR Verification form
