Mono
 for
Linux
 steps

  • You must complete the following steps in a root shell.
  • Install either the
    mono-devel
     or
    mono-complete
     package. For instructions, see the information on the Mono Project website. Either
    Mono
     package will allow you to complete the steps below.
  1. Open Terminal and change directories to the location where your certificate is stored.
    • The certificate must be in Privacy-Enhanced Mail (PEM) format.
    • The certificate required is the one that was used to sign the certificate and the key for your
      CylanceHYBRID
       application.
  2. After you change directories, enter the cert-sync command:
    cert-sync <YOURCERTIFICATE>
    where
    <YOURCERTIFICATE>
     is your certificate.
    Example Output: cert-sync rootCA.crt
    Example output file of the cert-sync command
  3. Mono
     stores the synced certificate to
    /usr/share/.mono/new-certs/Trust
    .
    When you install
    Mono
     for Linux,
    Mono
     automatically inserts its own certificates into the
    /new-certs/Trust
     directory.
    To locate your target certificate, you can use
    ls -ltr
     to display the latest modified file at the bottom of the Terminal output. You can use your method of choice to differentiate your target certificate from the other previously inserted certificates.
    Example:
    The certificate highlighted in the red box is the certificate that was synchronized using the above steps. All other certificates were inserted upon installation of
    Mono
    .
    Image highlights the certificate that was synchronized using the above procedure
  4. To confirm that a
    Mono
     certificate is the correct certificate, view the contents of the certificate file using the following command:
    cat /usr/share/.mono/new-certs/Trust/<
    filename
    >
    For example: 
    cat /usr/share/.mono/new-certs/Trust/44ff1262.0
    Confirm that the subject and the fingerprint in the output match the subject and the fingerprint or thumbprint of the correct CA certificate.
  5. In each
    Linux
     device that will use the application, create the following directory:
    /usr/share/.mono/new-certs/Trust
    Note that there is a period (.) before "mono".
    This step does not install
    Mono
     on the target machine; you are just manually creating the directory.
    Example method to create the directory:
    mkdir -p /usr/share/.mono/new-certs/Trust
  6. For all
    Linux
     devices, copy the synced certificate to the directory that you created in the previous step.
