You open the Add Keystore dialog from the Security
Manager by clicking the
Add Keystore button.
In the Add Keystore dialog, choose one of two radio buttons:

file. You can
then fill in the following fields to define the new keystore:

can be any legal file name with the extension
.ks
.
- Keystore Folder. Directory where the keystore file
is stored on your system. Click the Browse button to select a directory
other than the default.
- Password. A password that unlocks the keystore file
so it can be used. The password must be at least 6 characters long.
- Confirm Password. Re-type the password to ensure that it is the password
you want.
