Re: /QIBM/UserData/ICSS/Cert/Server & HTTPS

Rob,

This isn't for serving certificates on a server or web application, it's a
client making a request to a server from the IBM i.

The user needs to have at least *R authority (and *RX to the directory) so
it can read the SSL keyring files so it can hopefully find the proper
Certificate Authorities (CAs) so it "trusts" the SSL certificate used by
the server.

Not sure why it comes shipped with *PUBLIC exclude. I'm sure there's a
good reason. ;)

Dumb question of the day. Does the AF entry in the audit journal tell you
the name of the user? I would figure for a web job it would be some IBM
type user profile serving up the certificates. Just add them?

I'm doing an HTTPS webservice call out of RPG. It's giving me an
authority failure on this dir: /QIBM/UserData/ICSS/Cert/Server. The
default authority for that dir is:
*PUBLIC *EXCLUDE
QSYS *RWX X X X X

I'm reluctant to just blindly grant authority. Does anyone have any
experience with this?

Thanks
