Hi,
Were using rabbitmq to shunt bits of data around various systems to provide
better security we would like all of our acmq connections to be authenticated
and encrypted.
I'm looking for appropriate documentation or some friendly guidance of how
server to server SSL authentication is done with freeipa and if indeed this is
the best way to ensure privacy in such scenarios.
These are the best documentation sources I could find:
Creating certs for FreeIPA hosts:

With these certificates, you would need to manually configure SSL-based
authentication with mod_ssl/mod_nss. Partially related user howto is
http://www.freeipa.org/page/Apache_SNI_With_Kerberos
I wonder if RabbitMQ has GSSAPI support, that would be more easy to configure
with FreeIPA than SSL certs.
Btw FreeIPA 4.2 plans to have much better support for different cert profiles
or sub-CAs that you may later use for purposes like this one.
