Web-based System Manager Administration Guide

Viewing Configuration Properties

After the security configuration has been completed, you can view the properties of the Certificate Authority (CA), any server, and any client's public key ring.

To view CA properties, do the following:

Open the Management Environment and select your local host.
Select Web-based System Manager Security.
Select Certificate Authority.
Select Properties from the task list.
Type the password.

Note

The dialog provides read-only information for the CA.

Detailed information on all operations executed by the CA (for example, key ring generation or certificate signing) can be found in the /var/websm/security/SMCa.log CA log file.

You can perform this task from the command line using the /usr/websm/bin/smcaprop command.

To view a server's properties, do the following:

Open the Management Environment and select your local host.
Select Web-based System Manager Security.
Select Server Security.
Select View properties for this server from the task list.
Type the password.

Note

The dialog provides read-only information for the server.

You can perform this task from the command line using the /usr/websm/bin/smserverprop command.

Public Key Ring Content

To view the CA certificate included in the CA public key ring, use the /usr/websm/bin/smlistcerts command.
