Signing a certificate

Thread view:

I have two private-key/certificate pairs in a keystore (created using
keytool).
I want to sign one of them using the other one (the other one's private key
of
course). I'm using Java 1.5. I can't
seem to figure out how to do this from the javadocs. Can someone point
me in the right direction? Thanks.

One solution is to use the Bouncy Castle JCE provider for this. See the
following file in their source code package:
src/org/bouncycastle/jce/examples/PKCS12Example.java

You can get some hints from this thread:
