z/OS 1.7 with IBM WebSphere MQ for z/OS V5.3.1
Microsoft Window Server 2003 with IBM WebSphere MQ 5.3
Good afternoon.
We are trying to set up SSL channels between a z/OS Queue manager and a Windows queue manager. We have read the information in IBM Redbook "WebSphere msg broker and SSL" and the WebSphere MQ Security book V5.3 and other documentations available on the web.
We get the following msg when trying to MQ Ping from Sender channel in
z/OS to receiver channel on Windows server:
CSQX620E ?QMEP CSQXPING System SSL error, 309
channel ????,
function 'gsk_secure_soc_init' RC=-36
1. Are the cipherspecs the same at both ends?
2. Peer names correct?
3. Windows end using V3 certificate and supported algorithm?
The last assumes RACF being used on the z/OS end. _________________ It's puzzling, I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this before...and it's hard to soar like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys.
1. The cipherspecs at both ends are the same: TRIPLE_DES_SHA_US
2. I left the Peer names blank on the sender and receiver channel. Could that be my problem? I tought that when the SSLPEER was left blank then no checking was done against the partner's Distinguished Name???
3. We are using Microsoft Window Server 2003 with IBM WebSphere MQ 5.3 and both support SSL V3.
Sorry I couldn't help further. I've recently experienced an issue with Win-to-z/OS where the Win end was using makecert.exe (I think) and the algorithm used for the cert is not supported by RACF, just wasn't sure whether you were hitting the same brick wall.
Did ACF2 report any error messages when adding the cert(s) to the keyring? _________________ It's puzzling, I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this before...and it's hard to soar like an eagle when you're surrounded by turkeys.
