TRIUMF Certificate Authority
Other Clients:
Click the "Download Root Certificate" button on
ca.triumf.ca
- Konqueror: click "open", select "signer" "...TRIUMF Certificate Authority",
click "Import"
- Opera: Click "View", uncheck "warn me", click "install", click "OK"
The certificate should have the following fingerprints:
SHA1: 0C:CA:3D:69:78:81:15:48:75:53:65:8A:D9:24:30:3A:90:EA:32:F9
MD5: 8C:70:20:D5:46:39:4E:4F:B8:54:01:F7:0B:58:7E:B8
- For Pine/Alpine or other applications using the Linux OpenSSL libraries:
- For CentOS 7:
- Download the CA certificate (PEM format) into /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors
- run "update-ca-trust extract"
- On newer systems, install the triumf-cacert-openssl RPM - which avoids modifying the default bundle,
which may be occasionally changed by security updates, as in Sept 2011 (DigiNotar).
See TRIUMF rpms
OR
- Download the CA certificate (PEM format)
- append it to certs/ca-bundle.crt on the client; e.g.
openssl x509 -text -noout -in triumfca.pem >> /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
cat triumfca.pem >> /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
(older systems use /usr/share/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt)
- Create the hash link, e.g.
# cd /etc/pki/tls/certs
# openssl x509 -in triumfca.pem -noout -hash (gives e.g. dc3018f7)
# ln -s triumfca.pem dc3018f7.0
Note that on some systems triumfca.pem should be renamed triumfca.crt
- Debian may use /etc/ssl/certs:
# cd /etc/ssl/certs
# cat triumfca.crt >> ca-certificates.crt
# ln -s triumfca.pem dc3018f7.0
- For Acroread or other applications requiring DER certificates
- Download the CA certificate (DER format)
- install as required
- For OpenLDAP clients (ldapsearch):
- Install the triumf-cacert-openssl RPM, if missing (adds triumfca.pem and makes a link to the TRIUMF certificate as /etc/pki/tls/certs/xxxx.0)
- In /etc/openldap/ldap.conf, set
TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/pki/tls/certs
TLS_CACERT /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
- For OpenLDAP clients (SL/CENTOS 6), using NSS cf. OpenSSL:
as above, or:
- Execute certutil -d /etc/openldap/certs -A -n 'TRIUMF Certificate Authority' -t C,C,C -i /etc/pki/tls/certs/triumf.ca.pem
this adds the TRIUMF certificate authority to the NSS database /etc/openldap/certs/cert8.db
Note: In Opera, the padlock may not appear
in the status bar on certified pages, although "page properties" show
as secure.
