Description (last modified by adehnert)

Per help.mit.edu 569297, we should support per-vhost certificates by adding code to mod_vhost_ldap

[ Note that the status quo is that per-vhost certs are stored in LDAP, and then exported to disk by /etc/httpd/export-scripts-certs. The goal is to remove that "export to disk" stage. ]

I requested an OID from jis, which will enable us to extend the LDAP schema as necessary.

Depends: #55.

comment:4 Changed 16 years ago by andersk

#55 is unrelated. (This ticket is about supporting certificates for Joe Random Scripts User's vhost, hostname.mit.edu. Barring a minor miracle, we’re never going to be able to obtain or manage enough IP addresses to do this using IP virtual hosting as in #55.)

Without separate IPs, only browsers supporting SNI can ever benefit from this per-vhost certificates. To address this issue, as in #55, I think this fix should also include support for supporting per-vhost IPs even if only some people get them. For example, SIPB services running on scripts.

This is currently handled using reified vhosts, right?

comment:7 Changed 14 years ago by andersk

Yes. This ticket about handling it in mod_vhost_ldap instead so we don’t need to reify vhosts (and so that eventually we’ll be able to automate much more of the process).

Here are some of the Apache hooks we’ll need:

And my mod_vhost_ldap implementation of that hook seems to be working:

Now we just need the the inline string syntax for SSLCertificateFile that achernya and davidben are working on.
