To Generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) from your SHRINE keystore:

keytool -certreq -alias $FQDN -keyalg RSA -file shrine-client.csr -keypass $KEYSTORE_PASSWORD -storepass $KEYSTORE_PASSWORD -keystore shrine.keystore

This should output a file called shrine-client.csr (feel free to pick another more descriptive name instead), which should then be sent off to the hub administrator. The hub administrator will review the CSR and respond with either approval or rejection. The most common reason for rejection of a CSR is an invalid CN value. The CN of a certificate should match the publicly-accessible hostname of the machine that will use the certificate. Using other values can cause problems with verifying the identity of that host. If the CSR is approved, follow through with the rest of this guide.
