How do I automate the import of certificates on a Windows CE device?

I would like to automate the import of certificates on a Windows CE device. Pushing certificates to devices isn't a problem, but once they're there, I can't figure out how to import them without using the UI.

(I am currently using the Avalanche Mobility Center)

Another way to push certificates to Windows mobile devices is by using Windows Mobile Device Provisioning.

MSDN Article Provisioning Mobile Devices

In the examples of creating certificates in any of the Windows Mobile SDK directories there is an SDKTools directory with example xml files. for example on VS 2008 standard version with SmartDeice SDK installed



... \ Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 \ SmartDevices \ SDK \ SDKTools

As stated in the article above, there are several ways to secure a device. Installer CAB or CPF, native app using API or remotely connected device using RAPI or over the air (although over the air is not an option unless you are a mobile operator).

You need to execute the certificate from the command line. The easiest way to figure out what's going on is to connect to the .cert extension in Windows ME and see what command will execute when you double-click.
