Hi, I want to setup a simple tls tcp connection between two heka instances (a server and a client) communicating with standard ProtobufEncoder, so that the Heka client will forward all heka messages to the Heka server. But I have no experience configuring tls/ssl stuff, so any help would be really appreciated.
Do you know how to use openssl to generate ssl certificates that need to be used by the Heka server and the Heka client? Should we use the same files for both the server and the client for "cert_file" and "key_file" options (see: http://hekad.readthedocs.org/en/v0.6.0/tls.html#tls-configuration-settings)? Does anyone could also share some configuration examples both to setup TcpInput for the Heka server, and TcpOutput for the Heka client? I was also wondering if "client_cafile" and "root_cafile" (see: http://hekad.readthedocs.org/en/v0.6.0/tls.html#tls-configuration-settings) were required or optional, and what are they actually used for? Thanks for any help, Bruno
