If you want to create new CA for your Zimbra server , you can follow these steps :

Change user to zimbra account
[root@zimbra ~]# su - zimbra [zimbra@uranus ~]$ keytool -delete -alias my_ca -keystore /opt/zimbra/java/jre/lib/security/cacerts -storepass changeit [zimbra@uranus ~]$ keytool -delete -alias jetty -keystore /opt/zimbra/mailboxd/etc/keystore -storepass zimbra keytool error: java.io.IOException: Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect [zimbra@uranus ~]$ zmlocalconfig -s -m nokey mailboxd_keystore_password cz3vJBeRZ |
