Description

Instead of trusting all commercial CAs, the KNB Member Node should only trust the DataONE and CILogon certificate authorities.

To see a list of all them that are (currently) trusted:

openssl s_client -connect knb.ecoinformatics.org:443

Actions #1

Updated by ben leinfelder over 11 years ago

We should be able to simply use the DataONE chain file that we have installed already:

SSLCACertificatePath /etc/ssl/certs/
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/DataONECAChain.crt

(i.e., comment out the first line)

  • Status changed from New to Closed

Commented out the line that includes all CAs in /etc/ssl/certs and reloaded Apache. Now we are down to the short list of accepted CAs.
