Yes, you can use OCSP with Entrust issued certificates. Lorrayne [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Lorrayne, Thanks for your input.

Re: Multiple CRLs with same CA
Valicert has listed Entrust as one of its partners. I would assume that would mean that Valicert can interoperate with Entrust issued certificates. I think it is stretching things to say that partnership implies full parsing of the various Entrust CRL's. How many partnerships do you know where full implmenetation or interop is implied? :) /r$ -- Zolera Systems, Your Key to Online Integrity Securing Web services: XML, SOAP, Dig-sig, Encryption http://www.zolera.com __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Multiple CRLs with same CA
Rich, I'll check w/ an Entrust engineer today to see if I can get an honest (ha!) answer from him regarding your concerns. Lorrayne __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Multiple CRLs with same CA
Hello there, Thanks a lot for your help and input. Actually i found a solution to the problem. Entrust allows partitioned CRLs by default (CRLs are splited for scalability purposes) but you can enable the combined CRL which will not be splitted (for compatibilty, as the partioned CRL is only an option in the standard). So this one works well with openssl/mod_ssl. Those 2 CRLs (combined and partitioned) will work both at the same time without problems. If you want more info on that, don't hesitate to ask me.

Re: Multiple CRLs with same CA
No, openssl does not yet support the (infinite:) ways to split CRL's that Entrust likes. OCSP is simpler. :) /r$ -- Zolera Systems, Securing web services (XML, SOAP, Signatures, Encryption) http://www.zolera.com __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Multiple CRLs with same CA
Does Valicert support the various Entrust CRL extensions and partitioning? If not, then they're useless for this problem. /r$ -- Zolera Systems, Your Key to Online Integrity Securing Web services: XML, SOAP, Dig-sig, Encryption http://www.zolera.com __ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Multiple CRLs with same CA
Hello there, Is mod_ssl supporting having multiple CRLs for 1 CA? It seems it's not, and that's very anoying in my situation. I'm using Entrust PKI software which splits the CRL list when it reaches a defined size (for scalability). mod_ssl seems to check only the first CRL and don't care about the others, which means that users with revocated certificates can use them...
