// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// Load the certificate used for signing.  The certificate's private key is stored on 
// the Aruba.it server and the signing will happen remotely using the
// ARSS (Aruba Remote Signing Service).
// However, we still need the certificate locally (without private key).

// add the following lines of code to specify your authentication credentials,
// and the ID of the certificate w/ private key on the server to be used.

// Specifies the OTP authentication environment.
// 
// Common values are:
//   "demoprod" - Demo/Test environment
//   "prod"     - Production environment
// 
// This value is sent to the ARSS service and determines how the OTP
// authentication is validated.  The correct value depends on the type
// of Aruba account and environment that has been provisioned.
// 
// If signing fails with an authentication-related error, verify that
// the typeOtpAuth value matches the environment associated with the
// ARSS account credentials being used.
