How can i create an PKCS#10 file on a windows server 2008

Hi,

How can i create an PKCS#10 file on a windows 2008 server, which doesn't have any role.
So there is no webserver install on it.

Is there also a tool for it?

As Mahesh shared most of the relevance. I just to add a use case for CSR like "Request a certificate for an IIS web", you can check out these steps which I did see relevant though article is old and not it is more of in house Microsoft CA. But it should applicable with e CSR given to third party CA

There are also case of using openssl too from https://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/req.html#examples
e.g. Generate a self signed root certificate: openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout key.pem -out req.pem

One useful online tool to check CSR formatting is handy as well to verify that it contains the correct information
