Steps for changing control of access to administration pages
Perform the following steps to change the access control of the
administration pages to require authenticating by using a certificate:
- Edit the pkiserv.tmpl certificate templates file
and find the following lines in the PKISERV APPLICATION section:
# The following action will force userid/pw authentication for administrators <FORM name=admform METHOD=GET ACTION="/PKIServ/ssl-cgi/auth/admmain.rexx"> # The following action will force client certificate authentication # for administrators #<FORM name=admform METHOD=GET # ACTION="/PKIServ/clientauth-cgi/auth/admmain.rexx"> <p> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Go to Admin Pages"> </FORM>
The first FORM statement in these lines is active. (It is not commented out with # characters in front of the lines.) This requires authentication by entering the user name and password in a popup window. The second FORM statement is commented out (using # characters). This requires authentication by using a previously issued browser certificate.
_______________________________________________________________
- Comment out the first FORM statement (add # characters
in front of the FORM and ACTION lines) and uncomment the second FORM
statement (removing the # characters in front of
the FORM and ACTION lines).
