Digital certificate on files

G

Guest

Hi guys,
I got a digital certificate from Verisign, and now I'm in the process of
code signing a few files. I'm trying first with an exe file and I'm a bit
desperate. I'm using the signcode tool to do it. This is what I write in a
MS-DOS console:

signcode /spc C:mycredencials.spc /v a:myprivatekey.pvk /t
http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll c:project1.exe

It seems to work alright, because as soon as I execute this line, my PC goes
to my A drive and fetches my private key, then a form pops up asking for my
private key password (taking care of capital letters and being sure the one
I'm typing is the correct password), and signcode replies with:

Error: Failed to build the certificate chain as requested
Error: Signing Failed. Result = 800b010a, (-2146762486)

Then, after some seeking, found the following link, reporting the problem as
a bug on W2K, please take a look ...

Can anybody help me out, because I spent 400 USD and now this certificate is
not working at all, any workaround for W2K?

Cheers
