Unable to generate key pair please use new token account. Format/Initialize Token 8. Delete Redundant Key Pair 9. Certificate 10. Device Information 11. About WD ProxKey This is the default name of the token, and it is displayed on the top of the token tool software also, it can be renamed by the user. The user can rename the token to his desired name and can change it as and when he/she wants to. I could finally spot the issue after digging into the python code. The code is failing when calling 'serialization.loadsshpublickey(pubbytes, backends.defaultbackend)' in crypto.py because the python cryptography is calling an old python-cffi module. If you have got the Trust key token, don’t initialize the token. Step 2: Once you click on ‘SUMIT’ button a new page will be opened and prompt a message for. If you are facing problem with the token please contact to the eMudhra help desk (080- 67401400) or e-mail to info@e-mudhra.com. The key to this question is using JWT and Bouncy castle libraries for encoding the token and signing it respectively. JWT for encoding and decoding JWT tokens; Bouncy Castle supports encryption and decryption, especially RS256 get it here; First, you need to transform the. Step 1: Create a new key pair. Create a new key pair using either the Amazon EC2 console or a third-party tool. If you want to name your new key pair exactly the same as the lost private key, you must first delete the existing key pair.
Many people use free Dynamic DNS services to reach systems behind dynamicIP addresses. Many of the free services limited their service offer overthe time, or the service depends on buying a product (like a DSL router).
Bind Dynamic Update Key Generation 7
With bind9 it is easily possible to setup your own dynamic DNS service.
- To perform key rollovers via dynamic update, you need to add the K. files for the new keys so that named can find them. You can then add the new DNSKEY RRs via dynamic update. Named will then cause the zone to be signed with the new keys. When the signing is complete the private type records will be updated so that the last octet is non zero.
- Since the dynamic updates are written to a separate file, it makes sense to store the entire hostname in a separate file. Make sure that bind9 can create new files in this directory: mkdir /etc/bind/updates chown bind:bind /etc/bind/updates. Add to /etc/bind/named.conf.local.
This set of scripts use the 'nsupdate' tool and authenticated communication,to update the DNS entries.
Nsupdate — Dynamic DNS update utility rndc — name server control utility rndc.conf — rndc configuration file rndc-confgen — rndc key generation tool ddns-confgen — ddns key generation tool arpaname — translate IP addresses to the corresponding ARPA names dnstap-read — print dnstap data in human-readable form.
############################################################Files
bin/dns-update.pl
The script which executes the update.
Parameters:
- key file
- dynamic DNS hostname
- new IP address
conf/transfer.key
Example configuration file (hint: the key in the file is justa demo, change it!) For the purpose of 'dns-update.pl', only thefirst section is required.
conf/ontheroad.example.com.zone
Example zone.
http/my_ip.php
Script which returns the current IP address used by the client.
http/dynamic-update.php
Script which updates the dynamic DNS entry for the client.
############################################################Bind9 configuration
Since the dynamic updates are written to a separate file, itmakes sense to store the entire hostname in a separate file.Make sure that bind9 can create new files in this directory:
mkdir /etc/bind/updateschown bind:bind /etc/bind/updates
Add to /etc/bind/named.conf.local:
include '/etc/bind/transfer.key';zone 'ontheroad.example.com' {type master;file '/etc/bind/updates/ontheroad.example.com.zone';allow-transfer {key 'transfer';};allow-update {key 'transfer';};};
A sample file for the 'ontheroad.example.com' zone, as wellas a 'transfer.key' example are included in the conf/ directory.Make the changes and reload the bind9 configuration. Make surethat there are no errors.
############################################################How to dynamic update the hostname?
./dns-update.pl transfer.key ontheroad.example.com 10.0.0.20
Using another website which returns the current public IP address,this script can be used in a cron job, or whenever an interfaceis coming up. See also the 'webserver' section later in thisdocument:
./dns-update.pl transfer.key ontheroad.example.com lynx -source -dump http://example.com/my_ip.php
############################################################How to generate the bind9 key?
Here's a way to generate the key for bind9:
cd /tmp/dnssec-keygen -a HMAC-MD5 -b 256 -n HOST transferls -ld transfer
The file ending on '.key' contains a new key.
############################################################Using a webserver for clients without 'nsupdate' program
In case a client has no 'nsupdate' program (embedded client,mobile client, ..), a webserver can play the relay for updatingthe dynamic DNS entry.
The 'http/' directory contains two small PHP scripts.
'my_ip.php' just returns the official IP address used by theclient. This can be used to execute 'dns-update.pl', when behinda NAT.

'dynamic-update.php' is called with a 'host' parameter, thenthe script will update the dynamic DNS entry using the client'sIP address.
############################################################To-do
There are several possible improvements:
Bind Dynamic Update Key Generation 3
- only change the dynamic DNS entry when the new IP address isdifferent from the existing one
- differentiate between IPv4 and IPv6 addressesright now the script only allows one address, either IPv4 orIPv6
