the same check for \fBssl\fR. If no key/certificate was explicitly added for

.SH "NOTES"

.IX Header "NOTES"
|
|
The internal certificate store of OpenSSL can hold two private key/certificate
|
|
pairs at a time: one key/certificate of type \s-1RSA\s0 and one key/certificate
|
|
of type \s-1DSA\s0. The certificate used depends on the cipher select, see
|
|
also \fISSL_CTX_set_cipher_list\fR\|(3).
|
|
.PP
|
|
When reading certificates and private keys from file, files of type
|
|
\&\s-1SSL_FILETYPE_ASN1\s0 (also known as \fB\s-1DER\s0\fR, binary encoding) can only contain
|
|
one certificate or private key, consequently
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()\fR is only applicable to \s-1PEM\s0 formatting.
|
|
Files of type \s-1SSL_FILETYPE_PEM\s0 can contain more than one item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()\fR adds the first certificate found
|
|
in the file to the certificate store. The other certificates are added
|
|
to the store of chain certificates using
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert\fR\|(3).
|
|
There exists only one extra chain store, so that the same chain is appended
|
|
to both types of certificates, \s-1RSA\s0 and \s-1DSA\s0! If it is not intended to use
|
|
both type of certificate at the same time, it is recommended to use the
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file()\fR instead of the
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_use_certificate_file()\fR function in order to allow the use of
|
|
complete certificate chains even when no trusted \s-1CA\s0 storage is used or
|
|
when the \s-1CA\s0 issuing the certificate shall not be added to the trusted
|
|
\&\s-1CA\s0 storage.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If additional certificates are needed to complete the chain during the
|
|
\&\s-1TLS\s0 negotiation, \s-1CA\s0 certificates are additionally looked up in the
|
|
locations of trusted \s-1CA\s0 certificates, see
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_load_verify_locations\fR\|(3).
|
|
.PP
|
|
The private keys loaded from file can be encrypted. In order to successfully
|
|
load encrypted keys, a function returning the passphrase must have been
|
|
supplied, see
|
|
\&\fISSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb\fR\|(3).
|
|
(Certificate files might be encrypted as well from the technical point
|
|
of view, it however does not make sense as the data in the certificate
|
|
is considered public anyway.)
