It is a certificate of format PEM or DER which has only the public key. it will populate the "Recovery Agent" drop-down box on the client. Once the certificate is added it will stay remain in the iFolder server data base. Certificates can be added any time provided the ifolder services need to be restarted
>>> Russ Jury <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 9/25/2007 7:16 PM >>> I'm wondering if anyone out there has set up the Recovery Agent on iFolder 3.6 and can help shed some light on how to configure it. I have a successful iFolder install on SuSE 10.2 using rpms from srinidhi. I am trying to figure out what the simias-server-setup script is looking for when it asks for the "Recovery Agent Certificate Path?"... I'm assuming it is looking for a path with a X.509 certificate (from what I understand from other Novell documentation, in PEM or DER format, but with extensions .cer or .der?), however I'm not sure if it is looking for a public or private key (or both), or exactly what. I have taken a brief look at the code, though I'm not a programmer and have seen snippets that look for a certificate, and if there isn't one, it makes one - not sure if this is related or not either. Is it looking for a CA certificate (i.e. one that can sign other certs?) Am I also correct in when it does find one or more certificates here that it likes, it will populate the "Recovery Agent" drop-down box on the client? Could someone please help me figure this out? Even if you have part of the answer, I'd really appreciate any info on the subject. Thanks much!! -Russ J. _______________________________________________ ifolder-dev mailing list [email protected] http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/ifolder-dev _______________________________________________ ifolder-dev mailing list [email protected] http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/ifolder-dev
