Hi Maxim, This is the first eddition of "self-signed" section.
Using self-signed certificates. Prerequicites: - CA's root certificate: ca.crt - self-signed server certificate: red5.crt (distinguished Name while creating certificate should be assign to FQDN of your site, for example - vkc.company.com) Preparing of OM server. 1. Rename the existing keystore file red5/conf/keystore.jks to red5/conf/keystore.jks.bak Rename the existing truststore file red5/conf/truststore.jks to red5/conf/truststore.jks.bak 2. Export existing keys into PKCS12 format: enter to folder the ca.crt and red5.crt placed openssl pkcs12 -export -in red5.crt -inkey red5.key -out red5.p12 -name red5 -certfile ca.crt 3. Import resulting red5.p12 into keystore: keytool -importkeystore -srcstorepass changeit -srckeystore red5.p12 -srcstoretype PKCS12 -deststorepass changeit -destkeystore /opt/red5/conf/keystore.jks -alias red5 This command creates the keystore.jks with password changeit (may be any password) 4. Import your CA's root certificate into the keystore: keytool -import -alias root -keystore /opt/red5/conf/keystore.jks -trustcacerts -file ca.crt (need to enter password to keystore.jks - changeit) 5. copy keystore to truststore cd /opt/red5/conf cp keystore.jks truststore.jks 6. Change passwords in /opt/red5/conf/red5.properties: rtmps.keystorepass=changeit rtmps.truststorepass=changeit jmx.keystorepass=changeit 7. Set up SSL according "SSL for the web interface" section. 8. Set up RTMPS according "Tunneling RTMPS" or "Native RTMPS" sections. 9. Restart OM service or whole OM server. Now OM server is ready to accept SSL-connections. Preparing of clients. 1. Add the ca.crt certificate as trusted into the CA's list on all windows PC at the system level (certmgr.msc applet). 2. Add the ca.crt certificate as trusted into Firefox if it used (Firefox uses own store of certificates). 3. Add the ca.crt certificate into %JAVA%\lib\security\cacerts with keytool utility on a PC that organizes screensharing. For example, Java Version 8 Update 144 has been installed on Windows machine by default location path. Copy ca.crt to a folder : c:\ca.crt Start command line interface as administrator: runas /user:AdminAccount cmd.exe Enter admin password Enter to bin directory of java: cd "c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_144\bin" Import ca.crt into keystore: keytool -import -alias root -keystore ..\lib\security\cacerts -file c:\ca.crt Enter the password to keystore: changeit Now the clients are ready to connect to OM via SSL https:// vkc.company.com:5443.

I would like to sum up all the work with the SSL and I think one will be interesting for our community. 1. The self-signed certificates can be used but using of them requires some manual operations: 1.1. The certificates (root CA and server) must be installed into /opt/red5/conf/keystore.jks and /opt/red5/conf/truststore.jks on OM server as described at http://openmeetings.apache.org/RTMPSAndHTTPS.html page. 1.2. It's not necessary to add the root certificate into java/cacerts on OM server because all works OK with java/cacerts installed by default. 1.3. The root certificate must be added as trusted into the CA list on all windows PC at the system level (certmgr.msc applet). 1.4. The root certificate must be added as trusted into Firefox if it is used (FF has own store for the certificates). 1.5. The root certificate must be added into %JAVA%\lib\security\cacerts with keytool utility on a PC that organizes screensharing. 2. The use of real certificates is more preferable since it does not require as much work as described above. There are only two places where the certificates have to be installed: see 1.1 and 1.5 above. 3. The http://openmeetings.apache.org/RTMPSAndHTTPS.html page should be changed and supplemented. It will allow to exсlude a lot of questions for OM users. Those questions that I had to meet. Is all correct?

I found one difference in behavior of FF when it connected to https-sites with the self-signed certificates. Typically, the first connection prompts you to add the site to an exception but OM server does not give us this option. See pls two screenshots. This occurs before the СA is added to the Trusted CAs lists. If first an root certificate is added to the CAs list then we can access to an OM cabinet with green lock icon but will have the errors in the rooms as I wrote before. There is something in OM webserver…..

I tried to connect from another machines to the machine with screensharing and all worked fine with remote desktop if IE used but not Firefox. The error screenshots are attached and the errors take place when entering into any rooms. Do you know how to resolve it? And why only FF ?

I've reinstalled two times certificates but ssl does not work. 1. Both certificates root-CA and client one were added into /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/java/cacerts (this place is for Centos) with commands: keytool -import -keystore cacerts -file red5.crt -alias red5 keytool -import -keystore cacerts -trustcacerts -file ca.crt -alias root 2. As you recommend OM was started with red5-debug + option "-Djavax.net.debug=all" Logs have nothing while a ssl session was established. To exclude the impact of browsers, I tried to start up a session using telnet. Session to port 5080 (none ssl) were fixed in loggs but sessions to 5443 did not. In this case, the netstat command shows ESTABLISHED status to port 5443. Firewall is off. According to http://openmeetings.apache.org/RTMPSAndHTTPS.html two config files have to be changed: 1. Edit red5/conf/jee-container.xml file: Comment Tomcat without SSL enabled section UNComment Tomcat with SSL enabled section 2. Edit red5/webapps/openmeetings/public/config.xml and set <protocol>https</protocol> <red5httpport>5443</red5httpport> Are these changes enough or need more?

Maxim, I would like to draw on one detail. A simple way to test of a SSL-connection is to use the next command: openssl s_client -connect FQDN:port For example, openssl s_client -connect www.mail.ru:443, openssl s_client -connect www.ya.ru:443 and so on. This way does not use browsers and allows to test ssl-connections at a lower level than using browsers. This command does not work and hangs for my OM as I wrote before and I think that the question is not in the types of certificates (trusted or selfsigned ones). But where is the problem?
