SSL Reference Manual
the designated files are DER encoded X.509 CA certificates.
Default
If omitted, HP NonStop SSL will search for a single "CACERT" file on the default subvolume.
Example
CACERTS $DATA1.SSL.MYCA, $DATA1.SSL.MYROOTCA
Considerations
• The first file on the list must contain a certificate signing the given server certificate. Subsequent files must
contain certificates that sign the previous certificate in the list.
• During SSL handshake, the certificate chain will be sent along with the client or server certificate to the SSL
communication partner
• If a value of * is used for CACERTS, it will be assumed that the client or server certificate is self-signed.
• A CA certificate for testing purposes is delivered as CACERT file on the HP NonStop SSL installation
subvolume to enable quick start installation. This test CA certificate signs the test server certificate contained in
SERVCERT or CLIENTCERT.
