Red Hat SSL configuration for tog-pegasus
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The Red Hat tog-pegasus package is built with support for SSL
|
|
(the Secure Socket Layer).
|
|
Note: the upstream documentation for SSL is located here:
|
|
/usr/share/doc/tog-pegasus/PegasusSSLGuidelines.htm
|
|
However, because the upstream documentation for SSL is not up-to-date
|
|
(it was last updated in March, 2006, around the time of the
|
|
OpenPegasus-2.5.1 release), nor accurate, we are providing this short
|
|
description of how to configure SSL, as well as how it should be used.
|
|
|
|
Hard-Coded Build-Time Constants:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Here is the list of constants which are hard-coded during build time:
|
|
|
|
PEGASUS_CONFIG_DIR = /etc/Pegasus
|
|
|
|
PEGASUS_PEM_DIR = /etc/pki/Pegasus
|
|
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_KEY_FILE = file.pem
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_KEY_FILE_PATH = $(PEGASUS_PEM_DIR)/$(PEGASUS_SSL_KEY_FILE)
|
|
(= /etc/pki/Pegasus/file.pem)
|
|
o Contains the private key for the CIM Server SSL Certificate.
|
|
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_CERT_FILE = server.pem
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_CERT_FILE_PATH = $(PEGASUS_PEM_DIR)/$(PEGASUS_SSL_CERT_FILE)
|
|
(= /etc/pki/Pegasus/server.pem)
|
|
o Contains the CIM Server SSL Certificate.
|
|
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_TRUSTSTORE = client.pem
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_CLIENT_TRUSTSTORE = $(PEGASUS_PEM_DIR)/$(PEGASUS_SSL_TRUSTSTORE)
|
|
(= /etc/pki/Pegasus/client.pem)
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_SERVER_TRUSTSTORE = $(PEGASUS_PEM_DIR)/cimserver_trust
|
|
(= /etc/pki/Pegasus/cimserver_trust)
|
|
o Specifies the location of the OpenSSL truststore. Consistent with the
|
|
OpenSSL implementation, a truststore can be either a file or directory.
|
|
If the truststore is a directory, then all certificates within the
|
|
directory are considered trusted.
|
|
|
|
PEGASUS_SSL_SERVER_CRL = $(PEGASUS_PEM_DIR)/crl
|
|
(= /etc/pki/Pegasus/crl)
|
|
o This is where the CRL (Certificate Revocation List) store resides.
|
|
|
|
Tips Following Package Installation:
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
o CIM Server default SSL certificates are generated when you run the
|
|
tog-pegasus daemon (for example, by issuing the command
|
|
"systemctl start tog-pegasus") for the first time, which includes the
|
|
following files, which are created in /etc/pki/Pegasus: ca.crt, ca.srl,
|
|
client.pem, file.pem, server.pem and in /etc/Pegasus: ssl-ca.cnf,
|
|
ssl-service.cnf.
|
|
Important: simply running the "cimserver" binary (/usr/sbin/cimserver)
|
|
does NOT create the certificates or abovementioned files.
|
|
Note: if you want to use your own certificates, simply overwrite the ones
|
|
in /etc/pki/Pegasus.
|
|
|
|
o to enable/disable HTTPS port 5989 (the official WBEM secure port),
|
|
use cimconfig.
|
|
|
|
o the wbemcli command (from the sblim-wbemcli package)
|
|
uses /etc/pki/Pegasus/client.pem by default (see man wbemcli).
