Customizing the end-user web application if you use REXX CGI execs

This information applies if you are using REXX CGI execs for your PKI Services web pages. If you are using Java™Server pages (JSPs), see Implementing the web application using JavaServer pages.

For certificate processing to work, you need to customize the end-user web pages at least to some degree. Before you begin to customize web pages, you need to understand the pkiserv.tmpl certificate templates file. This file contains certificate templates, which define the fields that comprise a specific certificate request. This topic describes the pkiserv.tmpl certificate templates file and explains how to use it to customize the end-user web pages. This topic also explains the relationship between CGIs and the certificate templates file. Finally, this topic also contains information about customizing email notifications. (Sending email notifications is an optional feature.)
