Workshop: Exploring certificates with Java

Prerequisites

Clone the GitHub repository
Add the necessary entries to you hosts-file (on Linux/Mac: /etc/hosts. On Windows: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts): 127.0.0.1 ca.boosterconf.local 127.0.0.1 app.boosterconf.local
Try to run all unit test. This will fail if you don't do this step above. It will also fail the first time you run it, as some tests depend on local files. Copy the contents of target/test-data/certificates to src/test/resources/certificates to run successfully
Run com.johannesbrodwall.pki.ca.server.CaHttpServer as a main class - start, but with an error message that it cannot read the certificate information. The server runs on localhost:11080, but not yet with https
Create a file named pkidemo.properties with the following contents: ca.keystore=certs/ca/ca.p12 ca.create.ifMissing=true ca.create.issuerDN=O=Sopra Steria,OU=Conference talk
If you go to the server at https://localhost:11443 you be warned about an untrusted server.
Locate certs/ca/ca.crt and install it as a Trusted Root. Restart the browser and try https://localhost:11443 again. You should now get access
