How do I determine which PKI certificates are installed on a Red Hat server?


I have installed Ionix vCM onto a Red Hat Linux box. It correctly communicates with the collection server if I use the Ionix certificate. However, if I use a self-generate certificate, communication fails.
(1) How do I determine which PKI certificates are resident on the Red Hat box?
(2) How do I manually install a PKI certificate?
Thanks

What do you mean by PKI here? PKI isn't really a specific thing but the whole area of certificates and cert management. Are you referring to the bundled CA certs? if so, they are generally found at /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt or a similar location, which you can just read directly in a text editor.

As for manually installing, again you need to describe this more. There is no authoritative point of cert control, so when you install certificates and the likes, they are often local to a specific application or a specific framework.

Certificates

Thanks. Since posting my question, I found that the Vendor places his certificates in a non-standard directory. I am good for now. Thanks for the reply.
