Third Party CA Compatibility

Dear IBM Admins,

This is not for promotion but we need the latest and compatible third-party CA to integrate with Domino environment.

Previously, I was working with a free trial third-party CA and not able to integrate with Domino (keyring and etc) and the company is planning to buy a 3rd-party CA subscription.
Can you suggest the latest and compatible 3rd-party CA for Domino / Traveler usage?

There are also no updated datasheet or matrix guide to refer.

Please advise.

Thanks and best regards,
Mike

Hi Mike,

Domino/Traveler doesn't really care about who is the certificate authority.  The question really is does the device and browser recognize the Certificate Authority as a third party CA, this isn't something Domino/Traveler Support can answer but should be answered by the device/browser/certificate support.

iOS list of available trusted root certificates:

If you want to see trusted CA in Android take any device and go to Settings> Security>trusted credentials:

Put it simply if some particular device/OS does not trust some certificate authority Domino/Traveler Support cannot do much with that.

Question
You have decided to use a third-party certificate authority such as Verisign, Entrust, or Thawte for SSL setup on a Domino server. What steps do you take to do so:

This is noted.

 

I already inquired with Certificate Authorities and requested a trial certificate. 

Now it works and able to determine which CA can be used.

 

I hope IBM  can also update third-party CA or collaborate with each other. There are guides is no longer valid since Domino 9 versions are being used.

AFAIK, the built-in Certificate Request on Domino 9+ is no longer compatible with the creation of keyring  and unsuccessfully integrate of 3rd party certificates with Domino.

 

But this is greatly appreciated, thank you!

IBM support for 3rd party CA

I don't think there is any intention to go back to supporting Certsrv.nsf as the means of generating a keyring and merging an independently signed certificate into the keyring.  kyrtool has taken the place of Certsrv.nsf.
