(Visual Basic 6.0) Renew a DigiCert Certificate from an EST-enabled profile

Demonstrates how to renew a certificate from an EST-enabled profile in DigiCert​​®​​ Trust Lifecycle Manager. (The certificate must be within the renewal window configured in the certificate profile. The CSR must have same Subject DN values as the original certificate.)

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

' The example below duplicates the following OpenSSL commands:
' 
' # Name of certificate as argument 1
' 
' # Make new key
' openssl ecparam -name prime256v1 -genkey -noout -out ${1}.key.pem
' 
' # Make csr
' openssl req -new -sha256 -key ${1}.key.pem -out ${1}.p10.csr -subj "/CN=${1}"
' 
' # Request new cert
' curl -v --cacert data/ca.pem --cert data/${1}.pem --key data/${1}.key.pem 
'     --data-binary @${1}.p10.csr -o ${1}.p7.b64 -H "Content-Type: application/pkcs10" https://clientauth.demo.one.digicert.com/.well-known/est/IOT/simplereenroll
' 
' # Convert to PEM
' openssl base64 -d -in ${1}.p7.b64 | openssl pkcs7 -inform DER -outform PEM -print_certs -out ${1}.pem
