Find an user depends on its certificate serialNumber?

[Jack Carter]

Hi,
I'm using EJBCA 4.10.0 and plan to use higher version.
I'm interested in EJBCA Extern RA (EJBCA Webservice) and try to develop an application based on it. I'm facing a problem. I want to find an user by using function findUser with certificate serialNumber as parametter but I couldn't received expected result.

        UserMatch usermatch = new UserMatch();
        usermatch.setMatchtype(2); //equal to
        usermatch.setMatchwith(102); // match DN
        usermatch.setMatchvalue(certSerialNumber);

        List<UserDataVOWS> result = EjbcaImpl.getInstance().getWS().findUser(usermatch);

I understand that Matchwith=102 is the value SERIALNUMBER in DN feild. I reference to this link http://ejbca.org/older_releases/ejbca_4_0/htdocs/ws/org/ejbca/core/protocol/ws/client/gen/UserMatch.html and can't find appropriate value for certificate serialNumber.
Could I find an user based on certificate serialNumber?

Thanks

I'm afraid the UserMatch only works on User DN, not certificate serial number. The serno referenced there is SerialNumber in the DN.

You can use getCertificate(serial, issuer) to find a certificate, and from that find a user based on the DN in the certificate.

Cheers,
Tomas
