Hi All,

All this is in Broker V7 (latest FP)

I'm trying to set up a SOAP input node so that all clients must sign the body of message with their own certificate.

I have this working fine when there's only one client. But I can't figure out how to tell the policy editor that there is more than one client.

I tried putting 'Any' in the DN and Alias with the trust set to 'TrustStore' but then it seems to be looking for an 'Any' alias in the trust store.

And the bindings editor won't let me add a new line for the 2nd client certificate.

The doc for TrustAny seems to indicate that it won't validate the cert against the trust store but trust any cert from anywhere.

Any ideas?

You typically choose to trust the signer of the client certificate, rather than specifically trusting each individual certificate itself.

If you are using self-signed certificates, you have to add all of the client certs as signer certs to the SSL server's keychain.

This is why in these cases instead of using self signed certs use certs signed by your internal certificate authority. They work just like normal ca certs except that they are free... and are closer in behavior to what you'd be using in production (official ca signed certs)
