NAME

       crypto_certs - directory for certificate files for Solaris Cryptographic Framework

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/crypto/certs/CA

       /etc/crypto/certs/SUNWosnet

DESCRIPTION

       The /etc/crypto/certs directory contains ASN.1 BER or PEM encoded certificate files for use by the Solaris Cryptographic Framework.

       A  default  installation  contains  only two certificates. The CA certificate is the trust anchor for all other certificates. The SUNWosnet
       certificate contains the certificate use to sign the Solaris user and kernel cryptographic plug-ins.

       Additional certificates my be installed by third-party cryptographic providers. They  should  either  be  copied  to  /etc/crypto/certs	or
       included in the package that delivers the provider.

       Only  certificates  that are issued by the CA certificate are accepted by the Solaris Cryptographic Framework. This restriction is in place
       due to US Export Law on the export of open cryptographic interfaces at the time of shipping this revision of the product.
