Hi, It there a way to verify certificate with out root ca? I have 4 certificate: rootca.pem is the root ca (self signed). subca.pem was signed by rootca.pem. cert1.pem cert2.pem was signed by subca.pem. I was supposed to configure the client and server using subca.pem as ca, and cert1.pem

as part of the chain, create a new chain where the sub is the root What is the reason you do not want to use the root in the chain check, but it should be part of the chain? HTH Regards, Serge Fonville On Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 1:04 PM, Yin, Ben 1. (NSN - CN/Cheng Du)ben.1@nsn.com wrote: Hi

and verifying and not for encrypting, if the CA keys are stored safely, there is no 'compromise' Are you distributing the keys as well? HTH Regards, Serge Fonville On Tue, Sep 1, 2009 at 2:13 PM, Yin, Ben 1. (NSN - CN/Cheng Du)ben.1@nsn.com wrote: I only want to verfiy the signature (I mean
