Description Martin Kudlej 2012-02-15 08:15:43 UTC
Description of problem:
Qpid now uses NSS certificate database.
Aviary now uses OpenSSL certificates(PEM format).
Condor uses OpenSSL certificates(PEM X.509 format)

I think it will be fine to choose one of certificate storage and unify the way how users use certificates.

Another possibility is to write documentation how to easily switch between these 2 certificate containers.

Another goal: use chosen type of certificate storage in all MRG components.

Comment 1 Pete MacKinnon 2012-02-21 16:17:52 UTC
Since Condor has historically used OpenSSL there are no plans to support libnss within Condor or Aviary.

Comment 2 Martin Kudlej 2012-03-06 14:39:17 UTC
Grid developers won't change certificate container. I would know the opinion of Messaging part. -> Change component

Comment 4 Justin Ross 2012-04-20 16:14:12 UTC
We are not considering changing our ssl library at this time.
