NOTE: When PCI compliance is enabled, the exporting of the DSView 3 server CSR files, PEM certificates and
SSH keys does not submit the request to the client's browser; instead the files are saved in the DSView 3 server
user's home directory. The CSR filename is the name of the DSView server with extension .p10, the PEM
certificate filename is DSView System Certificate.pem, and the SSH key filename is DSView System
Certificate.pub. For example, if the server is running on Windows XP and the name of the server is WinXPServer,
the files are saved to [rootdrive]\Documents and Settings\[username]\ and the names are:
- CSR file = WinXPServer.p10
- PEM certificate = DSView System Certificate.pem
- SSH key = DSView System Certificate.pub
