We need ourl TSM admins to convert their clients from using encryption to using SSL transmission. To make the change easier for them, we are aiming to install a certificate on the TSM server whose root certificate is delivered with the TSM client. Both the TSM server and the client guides have a list of the root certificates delivered in the SSL Transmission section. They say that "Thawte Server CA", is one of the root certificates delivered, and we are focusing on it because of cost. But, Thawte doesn't sell a certificate with the name, "Thawte Server CA". And, in June 2010, Thawte started signing server certificates with an Intermediate certificate rather than a root certificate.
__This provokes two questions; Did TSM Development add the Intermediate certificate to those already delivered with the client? __Will the root certificate, "Thawte Server CA" work for a current Thawte product? I am asking the same questions of TSM Support and Thawte Support, but perhaps someone has tried this recently and knows whether it works. Thank you, Keith Arbogast Indiana University
