RE: [Ejbca-develop] RA Admin Web Interface

[Manuel R. <MR...@e-...>]

Thanks for the reply, things seem to be looking up with regards to getting
the admin panel working.

But (there is always a "but") could anybody clarify the following line in
the doc/README file :

"Download the CA certificate, transfer to PEM-format and concatenate the
certificates together in 'tomcat.pem.'"

Following the steps detailed previously to this one, I now have a tomcat.req
and a tomcat.pem in my EJBCA directory

Thanks in advance

M

Nice to see people try out the experimental features

The RA web interface is currently work-in-progress, but does however 
somewhat work. There is a preliminary section in the end of doc/README 
which describes the rather crude current setup procedure.
The RA web administration requires authentication with a client 
certificate (this is real sensitive stuff), which currently only works 
with JBoss-Tomcat. JBoss-Jetty will probably support it when JBoss 
integrates v 4.1 of Jetty, once that is finished, today it does not 
support CLIENT-CERT authentication in 'web.xml'.

As you may guess it has been quiet about the RA web admin interface 
because it is not yet completed.

Take a peek in doc/README.

Regards,
Tomas
