Does anyone know how to generate a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from the z-Series HMC so I can send it to a certificate authority, which can then return a certificate I can upload onto the HMC so I can utilize a browser to access the HMC? The HMC has some sort of default user-signed SSL certificate that is unacceptable in our environment. I already know Firefox is capable of accepting the certificates in our environment, but Firefox is not a solution our security team will accept.
The HMC seems to have the ability to upload an externally-generated certificate, but my security team tells me I have to send them a CSR from the HMC first. Alternatively, the HMC can generate its own user-signed certificates, but those are considered 'unsafe' by the same security group, and are hence rejected out of hand by our Windows Explorer configurations. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
