Re: Book to implement SSL

Thnx for thr info,
Can you give me may be some links on how to do or may
be soem more detail? I tried to follow this morning,
but it seemed very dry and I wasn 't confident if I
was doing things correctly.
- I have the Digital Certificate Manager and the
cryptographic access provider installed.
- I understood that I have to use port 443 to use SSL
- I guess I had to configure virtual hosts because I
have to run two instances in the same box??

Thnx

I don't think there's an easy to follow book but
here's what you need to
do (at a high level):

- Install Digital Certificate Manager and
Cryptographic Access Providers
(you should also install cumes and group PTF's if
these were not already
installed).
- Create an SSL certificate (there are instructions
in the InfoCenter on
this)
- Use the web admin GUI to set up SSL. It will set
it up inappropriately
but it will create an SSL application id. Copy the
SSL related lines
that were added to your configuration and delete
them.
- Assign the certificate to the just created
application id.
- You now have a decision to make on how to set this
up. You can either
use virtual hosts or separate instances. In either
case, you'll need to
put the SSL related lines you removed from your
configuration back into
whatever is handling port 443 traffic.

Two things to keep in mind with this:

- The port of Apache that runs on OS/400 does not
use OpenSSL so you can
ignore any generic Apache instructions related to
OpenSSL.
- You can only have one SSL certificate per IP
address. Plan
accordingly.
