We are trying to implement SSL between a Windows Server and Linux RedHat 8 both running MQ5.3 CSD05.
I have received a certificate from Globalsign and managed to Install the Certificate on the Windows server and assign to the Queue Manager (Thanks to the doco in this forum). On the Linux side do I use the same key (key.sto) or do I get another key from GlobalSign?
I have been reading through this forum but haven't got my head around it yet. Can anyone please help.
The keystores produced by windows are operating system format, whereas all the other distributed MQ's use GSKit, and hence you cant just ftp the key store over and use it. There is nothing stopping you from extracting the certificate and using it on the other end though.
The basic configuration is
QMA
PersonalKey for key A
Intermediate keys for key B
CA for key B
QMB
Personal key for key B
Intermediate keys for key A
CA for key A
