How to modify smhpd.conf & smhpd.xml

ty — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 18:51:39 GMT

The company's security rules require some changes be made to SMH web server. I made the changes in smhpd.conf, but my changes did not take effect. When hpsmhd was restarted, a new smhpd.conf was generated that contained the original parameters. Where do I make the changes so that these security reqirements can be met:

StartServers = 5
SSLProtocol = TLSv1
Verify that the client certificate is from an authorized CA
Maintain a CRL

Thanks

Tim

I found this document ... page 91 shows the SSLProtocol & SSLCiphers.

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02779581/c02779581.pdf

I used the following 2 commands to setup my cipher and disable SSLv2:

# disables SSLv2

smhconfig -s true

#sets up your cipher

smhconfig -Z ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!LOW:!MEDIUM:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH

so now when looking at the smhpd.conf

# egrep "SSLPro|SSLCip" smhpd.conf
SSLProtocol All -SSLv2
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!LOW:!MEDIUM:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH
