I'm not sure they asked the question they really intended, so it would help to know why they are asking the question. Whether the client supports certificates or not has no bearing on whether you can use certificates and keyrings on z/OS to store the public/private OpenSSH keys when you have IBM Ported Tools for z/OS V1.2. The client can use a standard OpenSSH public/private key file stored on their system, while the server can use certificates and SAF keyrings for both its public/private key and for the client's public/private key. -- Walt Farrell IBM STSM, z/OS Security Design ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
