SSL under UNIX: System and Software Requirements

The system and software requirements for using SSL under UNIX operating environments are as follows:

• a computer that runs UNIX.

• Internet access and a Web browser such as Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer.

• the TCP/IP communications access method.

• access to the OpenSSL utility at www.openssl.org/source if you plan to use the OpenSSL CA.

• knowledge of your site's security policy, practices, and technology. The properties of the digital certificates that you request are based on the security policies that have been adopted at your site.
