Create Credentials

    The first time you get credentials using the Eucalyptus Administrator Console, a new secret access key is generated. On each subsequent request to get credentials, an existing active secret Key is returned. You can also generate new keys using the command.

    To generate a new key for a user by an account administrator, enter the following

    euare-useraddkey USERNAME

    To generate a private key and an X.509 certificate pair, enter the following:

    euare-usercreatecert USERNAME
