Configuring the SSL UNIX client

StepsTo configure the client environment to use SSL

  1. Set the client SYBASE UNIX variable:

    source /<install_dir>/DC-15_0.csh (or .sh)
    
  2. Copy the trusted.txt file to the <install_dir> config directory:

    cp /<install_dir>/OCS-15_0/bin/trusted.txt /<install_dir>/config
    
  3. Go to the <install_dir> directory:

    cd <install_dir>
    
  4. Edit the interfaces file, and append the SSL entry to the Master and Query entries for the service:

    cat interfaces
    
    servicename
    master tcp ether machine name 12510 ssl
    query tcp ether machine name 12510 ssl
    
  5. Go to the Sybase Open Client and Open Server bin directory:

    cd <install_dir>/OCS-15_0/bin
    
  6. Issue the isql command to connect to the service:

    isql -Sservicename -Uuid -Ppwd
    
  7. When you are finished, stop the server and restart it. If you receive no connection errors, SSL is installed correctly.
