[Question] Client SSL Authentication

[Jon]

G'Day,

I can see that HTTP basic authentication is available for the agent, however am wondering if Client SSL Certificate authentication is available?

if so, where in the docs can i find this?

if not, will this feature be implemented?

Hi, you can see the config file with options related to certificates: https://documentation.fusioninventory.org/FusionInventory_agent/manpage/fusioninventory-agent/

I've read the docs, including that page, nothing could be located. what part covers client authentication specifically? the only mention of certs is checking the server cert

[David Durieux]

I think I don't understand you want

what I'm after is "https client certificate authentication" in summary, it's an authentication method wherein the client provides a certificate to the server as a means of authentication in which the server confirms as allow/disallow. most web servers offer this as part of their basic auth methods. see wikipedia for the basics.
