Situation
Created a certificate signing request (CSR) and sent it to Entrust. Recieved a server certificate and an Intermediate Certification Authority. (In particular, it happens with the L1B Chain Certificate.) Attempted to import these files and complete the process of creating a certificate. The certificate wasn't created and a -1238 error was returned.
Resolution
1. Contact Novell Technical support for a new PKI.NLM. (It hasn't been released yet.)
2. On the server associated with the certificate, rename the existing pki.nlm to pki.org.
3. Copy the new pki.nlm to sys:/system
4. Unload pki.nlm
5. Load pki.nlm
6. Complete the certificate creation process. (Note: If you turn on trace with +pkis, the log will still show the -1238. However, this is a cosmetic error that does not affect the proper use of the certificate.)
7. Rename pki.org to pki.nlm.
8. Unload pki.nlm.
9. Load pki.nlm
