Here is what I am trying to do

The client to geode already setup as 2 way authentication at SSL, so a secured 
transport already been built.

At application layer, instead of using username and password, can I reuse the 
ssl authentication to authenticate the user)? Or this is totally wrong?

Thanks,
Nan

Are you talking about SSL on the tcp layer, or the application layer 
authentication? AuthIntitialize produces a Property object and SecurityManager 
authenticate with a Property object. Theoretically, it should take what every 
you put in the property object.

Yes, I do, but still unclear to me how a certificate can be used.

I implement the AuthInitialize interface, but this only take username and 
password, how do I get a TLS context?

Thanks,

Hi Nan,

Have you looked at this bit of documentation 
https://gemfire.docs.pivotal.io/geode/managing/security/implementing_authentication.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gemfire.docs.pivotal.io_geode_managing_security_implementing-5Fauthentication.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=SFszdw3oxIkTvaP4xmzq_apLU3uL-3SxdAPNkldf__Q&r=HB5LZowSGF4DiMmOUsCX6Q&m=ecgOvdXyuXgcTZrgn8COy1k2UBmTeubm3cwOb8MI2Hk&s=inuT9Horl2W6wH-CYu_G4zxcVl3ODZSBUPBTWcY3MmM&e=>?

Not sure how geode can authenticate a user using a certificate + private key , 
don't see an api/callback at server side to get the client principle, can 
someone point me out ?

Thanks,
Nan
