#1: Client Authentication

Posted on 2010-10-17 02:19:02 by rangeli nepal

Good Afternoon Everybody,

I am not sure if it is the right forum to ask this question. If not
please guide me.

mod_ssl provides fabulous mechanism of doing client authentication. It
does so by issuing client certificates signed by your own CA
certificate ca.crt.


How we can use mod_ssl ( with client auth) when we we do not have
control on whole community i.e people are using certificates that is
signed by different CA.?

One way I was thinking was to accumulate public certs ( which may not
be CA cert) at one place( directory) and give its path to mod_ssl.

However I am not sure if this a good practice or even doable practice.

Any input will be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
