Clients can connect to a secure IIOP port using an SSL client certificate. You can issue intercomponent calls to the built-in CtsSecurity/SessionInfo component to retrieve the client certificate data, including the:
Distinguished SSL user name
Client certificate fingerprint (MD5 message digest)
Client certificate data
Chain of issuing certificates
This component implements the CtsSecurity::SessionInfo IDL interface. HTML documentation is available for the interface in the html/ir subdirectory of your EAServer installation. View it by loading the main EAServer HTML page, then clicking the “Interface Repository” link.
CtsSecurity::UserCredentials interface has
been replaced
The CtsSecurity::UserCredentials interface,
which is implemented by the CtsSecurity/UserCredentials component,
has been replaced by the CtsSecurity::SessionInfo interface,
which provides additional functionality such as certificate parsing.
EAServer supports the CtsSecurity::UserCredentials interface
for backward compatibility. Use the CtsSecurity::SessionInfo interface if
you are developing new components.
