Refreshing an expired CRL

If your CRL accidentally expires, then no one can log in to the host server.

  1. In your operating system's command-line interface, change to the \clgui\bin\misc subdirectory of your system root directory.
  2. Run hcicrlrefresh. This prompts for the CA password.
  3. Specify the CA password. The CA password is not hidden when you specify it, so you should ensure that it cannot be observed.
  4. Specify the CRL expiration date in mm/dd/yyyy format, or a specific number of days. For example, 1 for tomorrow.
  5. Specify whether to update the existing CRL or create a new one. The default is to update the existing CRL.
  6. Specify 1 or press Enter to update the existing CRL. The application updates the CRL and reports its success, showing the new expiration date, and then exits automatically.
