client certificate

When using client certificate authentication for Web clients, realize that the Web server is now part of your trust domain.

The SSL connection encrypts the client credentials contained within the client certificate as they are sent over the network.

Setting this informs WebSphere Application Server that inbound requests should be authenticated using client certificate authentication.

However, Java client certificate authentication does function with a local operating user registry.

For client authentication with HttpWebRequest, the client certificate must be installed in the My certificate store of the current user.

Specify whether you want the HTTP Connection Manager to use a client certificate for authentication.

Java client certificate authentication maps the first attribute of the certificate domain name to the user ID in the user registry.

A set of flags that provide additional client certificate information.

Accessing the client certificate is a straightforward process using classes that Java security provides.

Server-side considerations: We'll be configuring the server to expect a client certificate issued by a trusted CA.

Client Auth Required: If this field is set, then clients connecting through this connector must supply a valid client certificate.

To verify a client certificate, the provider-side handler must have access to the issuers' public key.

And enter the DN value that matches the client certificate, as shown in Figure 16.

The Web server for Application Server must have the signing certificates for the WebSEAL server's client certificate.

If the connection manager uses a client certificate, its properties include the certificate name.

When overridden in a derived class, returns a client certificate filed.

In the latter case, the client certificate must contain a valid user DN for the Application Server realm.

Gets a value that indicates whether the client certificate is present.

Gets a value that indicates whether the client certificate is valid.

This effectively disables J2EE security context generation, which frees us from having to use a valid user name in the client certificate.

Gets the last client certificate sent to the server.

Can be used as a signature for the whole client certificate.

You are using client certificate authentication to the Web server as discussed in the previous section.

When bind security is enabled, we receive the client certificate from the partner system.

Returns individual client certificate fields by name.

Receive the client certificate into the client's key database.

You also must alter its trust store to include only the client certificate that WebSEAL is using.

Set SSLPEER on the server to a string that matches the client certificate.

The CICSB region sends the certificate mentioned in IPCONN definition as the client certificate.

Import the client certificate into server trust store.

You are using client certificate authentication to the Web server.

The Framework attempts to reuse an SSL session only if a client certificate is not required.

Create or obtain a client certificate and add it to the keyring file (test. kdb), using the command in Listing 12.

When a certain client certificate was installed on the PC, it could not connect to some SSL servers.

This security token is the client certificate, in base64 binary-encoded form.

Create or obtain a client certificate and add it into the keyring file (ringcicsb), using the command in Listing 15.

For the final step, export the client certificate and import that into the server keystore, by first running (entered as a single line)

If you wish to use client certificate authentication, I recommend that you
