Hi Folks,
Does anyone know if there is a Redbook, Whitepaper or other good
reading for deploying SSL on z/VM for the first time?
I'm trying to follow the instructions in the TCP/IP Planning Guide,
but I have to confess as a first-timer they are a bit overwhelming.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Well, the fact that it's a giant pain is sort of the reason we
developed the SSL Enabler. The bad news is that this depends on the
version of z/VM you're running. The Enabler itself is free; we'll
sell you ongoing support for it if you would like; contact me offline
if you're interested.
If you're running z/VM 5.3, http://www.sinenomine.net/products/vm/sslenabler
is what you want. You will need to provide us proof of your current
VM license.
If you're running 3.1-5.2, the licensing stuff is the same but I need
to get you a different download which is not currently linked on the
web site. Talk to me offline.
If you're running 5.4, it's no longer Linux-based and thus the Enabler
won't help you.
