Hi Luke,
I believe this is not the case. The Java riak-client (version 2.0.6) that I
used does validate the server's cert but not checking on server's CN. If I
replaced getACert CA in the trustor with another unknown CA then SSL will fail
with "unable to find valid certification path to requested target". I don't
even see an option to ignore server cert validation on the client side. I am
wondering if you can help provide some details related to SSL certification
validation configuration.
My riak node builder code:
RiakNode.Builder builder = new
RiakNode.Builder().withRemoteAddress("127.0.0.1").withRemotePort(8087);
builder.withAuth(username, password, trustStore, keyStore,
keyPasswd);
Thanks
-Kyle-

Kyle -
The CN should be either the DNS-resolvable host name of the Riak node, or its
IP address (without "riak@"). Then, the Java client should be configured to use
that to connect to the node (either DNS or IP).
Without doing that, I really don't have any idea how the Java client is
validating the server certificate during TLS handshake. Did you configure the
client to *not* validate the server cert?
