Yarnman SSL Certificates

Configuring Intermediate Certificates

Typical format for standard SSL.

/opt/yarnlab/yarnman/config

ssl-cert.cert - Standard certificate sent to clients

ssl-key.pem - Private key file for checking response

In order to enable intermediate certificates we must create new folder in /config.

Code Block
~/config
  /ca
    1-name.crt
    2-name.crt
    3-name.crt

The /ca folder contains the intermediate certificates that will be loaded in order. The easiest way to achieve this is to use the naming conventions 1-, 2- etc. Each certificate must end in .crt in order to be loaded.

Once the folder is created and at least one certificate is added in the format indicated the services on the node must be restarted.

To acquire a new certificate you must generate a CSR (Certificate Signing Request). This may be done initially after creating private key or when a certificate expires
Certificate Locations /opt/yarnlab/yarnman/config
/ssl-cert.cert - Standard certificate sent to clients
/ssl-key.pem - Private key file for checking response
Open ssh session to server – go to /opt/yarnlab/yarnman/config
