  2. Copy pkcs11 library file libcs_pkcs11_R3.so from Utimaco CryptoServer software to the /opt/utimaco/lib directory and make the file executable.

›_ Console

# mkdir -p  /opt/utimaco/bin && mkdir /opt/utimaco/lib 

# chmod  +x /opt/utimaco/lib/ libcs_pkcs11_R3.so 
  1. Copy the csadm and p11tool2 files from Utimaco CryptoServer software to /opt/utimaco/bin directory and make both the files executable.
