Subject: Using Rampart to send a proxy certificate and sign using a symmetric
key
Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2013 08:59:15 +0000
Hi
I have a bit of a unique situation, I am writing an Axis2 client and have to
follow a certain procedure. I would like to use Rampart to do the following,
1- I have a proxy certificate issued by a server for me, this certificate has
my username and the server's public key, I would like to have rampart to send
this certificate.
MG>A certificate is generally used by Browsers for verifiying you are who you
are and you wish to communicate to server with these specific credentials
As far as I know, the samples only show how to have rampart use a certificate
from a key store
MG>from the trust-store called cacerts
is there another way to do it?
MG>First step is to get the cert working to validate you to the external
interface
MG>Second step is to setup a SSLv2 or SSLv3 session (using some known
transport) to the server
2- I would like Rampart to sign the request using a Symmetric key. As far as I
know, rampart takes the key from a key store but I am not sure how to ask it to
sign the request using this key and such
The samples didn't help much with this and I am not sure where to find more
information
Any help is greatly appreciated
