Location of SSL certificates

I am going through the vSphere Upgrade Guide impatient of my upgrade to vSphere 4.0 vSphere 4.1.  My current VirtualCenter server is Windows 2003 32-bit, and looking at the documentation I will move to a 64-bit server.  It's fine, I can create a new 64-bit of Windows 2008 Server and follow the documentation for moving to a new server.  First of all in the document, he identified the default device of the SSL certificates as «installation location\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\SSL.»  I assumed that the 'location', mentioned in the Program Files folder, but found no such a file to this location.  Later the documentation tells me to save my SSL certificates located in the «%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VMware\VirtualCenter.»  I see a * .key, * .crt and *.pfx sub-folder SSL at this place.  I guess these are the good files to back up?

Yes.

    I can't get or send emails on my cell phone two days ago.

    Thank you.

    No you can not communicate with the server using a common product of Mozilla. In a short while you will not be able to co interact with it with any product. The operator/administrator of the server needs to fix their server to issue certificates 1024-bit or better. Or stop using TLS.

    The best explanation of this change and it's because I've seen is here https://weakdh.org/
    (right at the bottom of the page is what you need to do stuff)

    In essence, that the server does not have a security flaw serious patched and Mozilla products have been modified to not interact with servers that have not corrected the vulnerability. Vulnerability leaves you open to man in the middle attack on piracy.

  • ACS 3.3 invalid or corrupted SSL certificate installed

    Hello

    I installed a new SSL certificate to replace the old one which was about to expire. After this update of cert, I can access is no longer the ACS server for admin purposes. I get the error "cannot establish connection cifered because the certificate presented by is invalid or damaged. Error code:-8101 "or something similar that the message is in Spanish.

    I tried to restart the CSAdmin service without success. I also watched ath the different CS tools but none of them does this nor is the Guide to GBA.

    Is there a way to remove the certificate from the command line or other?

    AY help would be appreciated because I don't want to reinstall/rebuild the server.

    Thank you

    Niels

    If the EC is 3.3.4 or below then it can be disabled through the registry. 4.x do not have registry settings to tweak.

    For 4.x

    A possible workaround we have is that if a GBA backup taken prior to activation of the HTTPS is there, we can restore the same and work around the problem.

    For 3.3.x

    To restore access using http on your server, you must change the registry setting

    to disable the https. Here's the location of the key "reg":

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Cisco \CiscoAAAv3.2 \CSAdmin \Config \HTTPSSupport

    Change this value from 2 to 1.

  • Failure of the conversion due to SSL certificate problems - can work around this problem?

    I began the process of migration of a collection of virtual machines in an environment of KVM to an existing cluster of vSphere and try to use the converter (5.5) do a dynamic conversion/migration of a Ubuntu box, but it does not reason create the virtual disk on one of the hosts because of the SSL certificate, and I found no other messages or articles specifically on this (looks like most associated with SSL include improving speed)

    In the worker newspaper, I can see that:

    • The converter is able to successfully create the target VM
    • The attempt to create the virtual disk is defective for the certificate SSL is not invalid (all systems in the cluster appear to be using default certificates from VMware).  In the log file of the worker:

    • The goal of the virtual machine is removed.

    Is it possible to simply disable the validation of certificate for this process?  In the newspaper, it looks like a registry key that it would control, but I have not found any information on this subject (or guessed correctly).  Or can I import this certificate on the local Windows system running converter to get around it (I could not with this approach, but either)

    It's really not clear to me which system validation.  While the worker log shows it connect to the vSphere host, there is no such line indicating it connects to the host where the target VM is located, and it looks like this is the host with the certificate which is considered not valid.   Validation occurs not on my local system running the converter? (the parameters of the vCenter server shows that the box 'vCenter requires a verification of certificates SSL host' is unchecked already)

    Thank you

    Scott

    You might want to take a look at Re: an error occurred when opening a virtual disk. Make sure that the converter server and source running machines have network access to the ESX/ESXi hosts source and destination and let me know if it works for you.

  • CA-signed SSL certificates on vCenter 5.1 installation (server or device)

    I recently updated my 5.0 to 5.1 ESXi ESXi hosts and they all kept CA-signed SSL certificates that I installed previously. I did a new install of vCenter 5.1 server where the box even ran SSO, inventory, vCenter Server and Manager Update Services. After installing, everything worked perfectly except that none of the vCenter services used my CA-signed SSL certificate - only 5.1 ESXi hosts had these.

    So, I followed the instructions in replacing default vCenter 5.1 and ESXi certificates PDF found at http://www.vmware.com/resources/techresources/10318. The document is terrible. For example, page 10 lists the locations by three default certificates SSL on Windows 2008. None of these paths are correct. The first a typo of extra space between "Program" and "Data" and the other two say "Program Files" when they should have been "ProgramData". This is just the beginning of the problems.

    If you follow the instructions to the letter, you'll break vCenter. I got frustrated and thought I'd give the vCenter 5.1 device a shot. With regard to the Certificates SSL signed by CA, it was worse. The vCenter 5.1 device can even automatically generate a new SSL certificate if you change the host name (turn on generation auto-certificat, change of hostname and restart). It gives an error 653 during the boot process and keeps the original of the certificate. Even bother trying the steps on page 18 of the above-mentioned guide - you will get just the same mistake 653.

    It seems to me that VMware did not all tests around the CA-signed SSL certificate on vCenter 5.1 installation. It's amazing to me that the installation of the SSL certificate is so tedious for ESXi and vCenter when vShield Manager 5.1 has a very simple process that works well (and is similar to the installation procedure for Certificate SSL on the DRAC, ASR, breeding various firewalls, etc.).

    I did a lot of research on Google and found various articles on the installation of the SSL certificate, but most were based on GA pre - 5.1 products. If you have any installation of certificates SSL CA-signed success with vCenter Server or device 5.1 GA, let me know how you got around some of these issues. Please indicate if your vCenter Server or device will run on a 5.1 GA ESXi host as well. Please do not answer about vCenter 5.0 - I had no problem with SSL certificates (other than it was more painful to be).

    Thanks in advance,

    Nate

    Finally I managed to install giving him to 127.0.0.1 instead of the period of INVESTIGATION, accessible from the outside of the vCenter server, it's very well in my case the vCenter and VUM server are on the same VM but its not exactly ideal for deployments of more large.

  • Firefox for Mac does not recognize a valid SSL certificate

    Firefox for Mac does not recognize the SSL certificate that is valid for this site, I got: https://www.georgeglazer.com. It gives a warning "not reliable." However, the Firefox for Windows does not give a warning. This happens even if I clear the cache and it happens in the Mavericks and OS of Yosemite. The certificate is up-to-date and with Comodo. Firefox for Mac is now the only browser producing these errors (v. 39, put updated) - Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome are not. Our hosting provider has said it's probably a browser issue, perhaps having to do with intermediate certificates in Firefox being obsolete. I really hope you'll solve the problem, as it's annoying for us when we're going to do right by our customers and pay for the SSL certificate. I have attached a picture of the warning and the other from what you see on a PC: a pop-up that says it is a verified SSL certificate and gives details about the issuer, the period of validity, etc.

    COMODO should you sent a link to download the file 'bundle' containing the intermediate certificates. Who needs to go in the same directory as the certificate of your site. If you are using a control panel, your host can probably help with this process. And if you bought through them, shame on them for not taking care of this for you already!

  • How can I set up email when the field on the SSL certificate does not match?

    I am a customer of Dreamhost and don't know if our situation is unique or not, but both smtp and imap are "mail.example.com" even if the SSL certificate belongs to ' *. DreamHost.com'.

    I was not able to set up the email on my flame app because I get the following error:

    > Could not establish a connection with "mail.example.com". There may be a problem with your network or server.

    I think the problem is the lag of domain name, but I can't find a way to accept the certificate.

    Hello!

    According to the official DreamHost wiki site , you can try this (cut-and-pasted from the page). If it doesn't work, there are still other options available on the page.

    To connect to the mail server using the name of the server dreamhost.com instead of messagerie.votre_domaine.fr.

    Use the following steps to determine the name of the server to use:

       In the DreamHost Control Panel
       Click "Account Status" in the upper right hand corner
       Look for the "Your Email Culster:" at the bottom of the list.
       Find your cluster in the table below.
       Use the server name for the incoming server in your mail program.

  • Thunderbird does not recognize a self-signed SSL certificate

    Dear support,

    I have a very strange problem that I don't understand.

    I run a server ISP offering IMAP and TLS/SSL HTTPS encryption. Both services use the same SSL certificate issued by RapidSSL/GeoTrust Server edward.ennabe.de

    When I open an https connection to the server, Firefox correctly solves the certificate chain and use the certification authority root Equifax (which is correct).
    However, when I try to connect to a mailbox via Thunderbird, all I get in the hierarchy of certificates is my server edward.ennabe.de. I don't think that it's "working as intended", or is it?

    Is something wrong with my Thunderbird or My Dovecot configuration? What is really strange that firefox recognizes it correctly.

    Thanks in advance

    Kind regards

    ZeroEnna

    In Thunderbird, click the 'Détails' tab in the display of the certificate.
    See all certificates of CA listed in the field "Certificate hierarchy" also installed in your Thunderbird certificate store?
    When checking this look for the tab 'authorities '.
    If there are no certificates listed in the missing chain in the Thunderbird certificate store (for some reason any), you can try to export it in Firefox and import them into Thunderbird.

  • The e-mail application does not connect to the Dreamhost servers. Perhaps because of how they configure their SSL certificate for their subdomains.

    http://wiki.DreamHost.com/Certificate_Domain_Mismatch_Error

    Certificate SSL of Dreamhost for their mail servers only at one level of subdomain while many of their clusters of e-mail exist on a second level subdomain. In my view, this translates into an error message 'bad security' of the e-mail application.

    I contacted DreamHost and they say they are unable to solve this problem, or that they will allow me to install an SSL certificate on my virtual domain pointing to my cluster e-mail (even if I had to buy a).

    I understand, it is possible to manually add certificates via adb in a way similar to this: http://www.pending.io/add-cacert-root-certificate-to-firefox-os/

    However what I read this: 1. does not work on the ZTE Open 2. Can only fix only navigation not the web mail client.

    Is there any option that is available to me short of switching hosts?

    Fabian,

    Are you familiar with Firefox OS? The reason why I say this is because the e-mail client cannot create an excaption certificate. In fact, it's design. It's design: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gaia/Email/Features#Security

    This request for support to Mozilla was placed specifically for the product Firefox OS, for which there is only a single mail client.

    That said many people in the Mozilla Bugzilla, have been able to show me how to find another alias for those servers that actually works and in fact corresponds to SSL certificates. Although Dreamhost support could not provide me with any such information, and such information is not actually in the DreamHost wiki.

    I have a repeated insistence of Dreamhost possibility I should just live with the exceptions of SSL certificate, when there is real existing valid server names to match the certificates in question, silly.

    The fact that you post this solution for one product, so that it is not yet applicable beyond useless. It serves to muddy waters.
