Importing Certificate Path into IE

This section provides a tutorial example on how to use IE to import a certificate path into certificate stores.

Next, I want to import some other certificates signed by me into IE certificate stores to form a certificate path:

Repeat the import process described in the previous tutorial to import john.crt, bill.crt, and tom.crt into the "Intermediate Certificate Authorities" certificate store.

Now if you view the "Tom Bush" certificate in IE, the Certification Path will display a certificate path of 4 certificates:

Herong Yang
 |- John Smith
     |- Bill White
         |- Tom Bush
