Configuring HTTPS on Linux systems

Other than the BACS management application, no special software components are required on a Linux

client system to use HTTP.
To use HTTPS on a Linux client, import a self-signed certificate.
Import a self-signed certificate
Linux distributions use the following directory for certificates:

SuSE uses /etc/ssl/certs

Red Hat can use one of two different directories:

/etc/ssl/certs

or

/etc/pki/tls/certs

If needed for the specific Linux distribution, determine which directory stores the certificates.
To import a self-signed certificate:

1.

Copy the hostname.pem file into the certificate directory.
