Hi Markus,
I missed a bit that you try only client to server at the moment. This is
pretty straightforward. Here's a snippet from the dsmserv.opt of our
7.1.4 server:
TCPPort 1500
SSLTCPPORT 1502
TCPADMINPort 1501
SSLTCPADMINPort 1503
SSLTLS12 YES
ADMINONCLIENTPORT NO
The dsm.sys for the corresponding client has:
TCPPort 1502
TCPAdminport 1503
SSL Yes
Besides, you just have to import the cert256.arm into the client's
keyring and you're ready to go.
Some of these settings are specific to our setup. If you don't use
'ADMINONCLIENTPORT NO', you don't need a 'TCPAdminport' setting on the
client.
And yes, I know that there is a bug in the TLS1.2 implementation, so the
'SSLTLS12 YES' setting should not be used in production environments at
the moment until IBM gets the GSKit error fixed. (We use it just in our
test environment.)
Regards,
Bjoern
