Steve Davids commented on SOLR-4407:
------------------------------------
Sorry for not being more specific. Yes, the instructions does allow for
specifying your own self-signed certificate and importing that specific
certificate in a new trust store that will be loaded by the container - this
will lock it down to the specific certificate. The modification that I have
done is to create a custom servlet container to openly accept client
certificates within an organization, perform an LDAP lookup (via cert DN) to
pull groups then grant access if they are apart of a specific group. With this
capability we are able to grant access via LDAP groups which is a preferred
route of client authentication for our specific use-case.
So, to answer your question:
bq. What aspect of SSL do you think isn't already configurable?
SSL is configurable via trust stores but mechanisms for a customizable
certificate based authentication system isn't in place, such as the case above
(get cert DN + user lookup via LDAP to authorize).
