Re: cert from webservice



Sender: "Jay Peasley" <jpeasley@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Scott,

When I imported the certificate DCM placed it as a CA cert, though I was in
manage client applications at the time. When I try to update the certificate
assignment for a client application, the list of available certificates are
ones specific to the iSeries and not from any CA.

YourPay is sending us a self signed cert that they want to be sent with the
SSL transaction, not a cert signed by a CA for the server. If http-api uses
DCM to get the cert and I can't specify a CA cert for a client application,
then I am kinda stuck.

There is a Java wrapper that will purportedly do this, but I am unsure if
the iSeries flavor of it will work. I also don't know Java.

I hope this explains it.

Jay
