Signing a private key with android sdk tool

Question

I want to sign a private key before releasing the application.. I thought to do it with sdk tool. I enter this command

    $ keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore
-alias alias_name -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

In cmd , I am at that path.

C:\Users\dmitrym\android-sdks\tools

But when I run that command I get from the command line,,that the $ keytool..isnt a command..

How do I run that command so that it works? and in which folder will the file be output?

where did it store the key?!?! – Dmitry Makovetskiyd Apr 19 '12 at 14:10 — Dmitry Makovetskiyd, Apr 19 '12 at 14:10

The keytool can be found in your Java/bin directory ("c:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_26\bin\keytool.exe" in my case) The output should be in the folder you are running from
