SSLCALISTLOC="file-path"

Syntax Description

"file-path"

specifies the location of a file that contains the digital certificates for the trusted certification authority (CA).


Details

The SSLCALISTLOC= option identifies the certification authority that SSL should trust. This option is required at the client because at least one CA must be trusted in order to validate a server's digital certificate. This option is required at the server only if the SSLCLIENTAUTH option is also specified at the server.

The CA list must be PEM-encoded (base64). Under z/OS, the file must be formatted as ASCII and must reside in a UNIX file system.
