Java includes the keytool utility which allows you to create a keystore. I've only used the keystore and keytool utility for creating and storing certificates. I don't know about userid/password credentials. I use the certificates in a keystore to sign applet jar files with the ant signjar tool.

There's a nice tutorial here that includes creating a keystore: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/security/toolsign/index.html

Subject: Is there an key store that is similar to "Windows-MY" in java on the i?

I have a project that requires me to store a user id and password ... obviously I don't want to store the password in clear text.

On windows machines I can use the "Windows-MY" key-store ... but this application will probably be run on the i as well.

Is there a java key-store on the i that is similar to Windows-MY in that it is tied to a authenticated user?

Thanks!

david
